FFwD ~ baked apples filled with fruits and nuts

It's Friday 

and we are baking apples filled with fruits and nuts!

I used:

sliced almonds, prunes, dried apricots, golden raisins 

and crystallized ginger and binding agent was

a splash of maple syrup

cos it will take forever ever for the last bit of honey to

travel all the way down to the nozzle... ;(

I peeled the apples (cos I think my apples were waxed)

and made a cut around the middle of the apples

but I did put all the bits and pieces from the centre

of the apples in place of the peelings

 

loads of unsalted butter on the tops

and in the water (not apple cider)

I thought of using a fruity wine but decided not to, in the end

 

baked these in an uncovered corning ware dish

for an hour and 5 mins

will taste it tomorrow morning 

but it should be good!

UPDATED:

baked apple with oatmeal with a sprinkling of pomegranate

 
 below: pasta cooked the 'dressy pasta risotto' way
but with vegetable stock, mushroom infused cream
and loads of mascarpone with
diced salmon, mushrooms and peas!
