My recipe for baked apples recreates a regular and favourite dessert from when I was a child. We had a large Bramley apple tree in the back garden, which fruited generously and provided apples to eat through the winter months. Just a few minutes of preparation, then after just under an hour in the oven you have a delicious and pretty healthy dessert.
Top with freshly made custard or a good quality vanilla dairy ice cream for a taste that is hard to beat.

For each person:
1 good sized Bramley apple (or other large apple that cooks without losing its flavour)
About 1 dessert spoonful of dried fruit - raisins, currants, candied peel, dates, cranberries etc - use what you like
1 clove
1 teaspoon demerara sugar - really any brown sugar will do
Water
Optional ingredients:
ground mixed spice or cinnamon or allspice - mix with the dried fruit as you stuff the apples
Calvados or apple brandy - pour a small amount over each apple after stuffing but before sprinkling with sugar.
