  • 4
    tart apples
  • 100 g
    marzipan
  • 3 tbsp
    sultanas
  • 2 tbsp
    chopped almonds
  • 2 tbsp
    sliced almonds
  • 2 tbsp
    butter, softened
  • 2 tbsp
    maple syrup
  • apple juice
  • For the vanilla sauce:

  • 250 ml
    cream
  • 250 ml
    full-fat milk
  • 3 tbsp
    sugar
  • 3
    egg yolks
  • 1
    vanilla pod

1
Preheat the oven to fan 200°C.


2
Beat the butter, maple syrup and marzipan together in a bowl for 5 minutes until creamy.


3
Put the 4 apples into a baking dish. Cut the tops off, cut out the cores with a core cutter and pipe the filling down into the centre of the apples. Top with the flaked almonds and replace the lids.


4
Pour in some apple juice to cover the bottom of the baking dish. Bake in the oven for 20–30 minutes until soft.


5
Meanwhile, make the custard. Pour the milk into a saucepan for the vanilla sauce and bring to a boil.


6
Halve the vanilla pod, scrape out the seeds and add the pod and seeds to the milk in the pan and leave to infuse for about 5 minutes.


7
Pour the infused milk through a sieve and back into the pan. Add the cream to the milk and slowly bring to a boil.


8
Whisk the egg yolks with the sugar in a bowl until creamy and add half of the hot milk to the egg yolks, stirring constantly.


9
Pour the entire egg mixture back into the pan with the rest of the milk and heat over a very low heat for 2 minutes, stirring constantly (be careful not to overheat, otherwise the eggs will curdle) until a creamy consistency is achieved.


10
Remove the baked apples from the oven and serve with the vanilla custard.
