Ingredients:

(For 8 Portions)
Qty Unit Ingredient
4 large Apples » tart
3 tablespoons Lemon Juice » divided
3 cups Water
1 1/2 cups Sugar
1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
Prep Time Process Time Overall Time
45 Minutes 15 Minutes 1 hour

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375°F / 190°C / Gas Mark 5

1. Prep the Apples: Peel, core, and slice the apples into halves.

2. Prevent Browning: Sprinkle the halves immediately with 2 tablespoons of lemon juice to keep them looking fresh.

3. Build Syrup Base: In a large skillet, stir together the water, sugar, and the remaining 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Bring it to a simmer uncovered for 5 minutes.

4. Poach Fruit: Carefully slide the apple halves into the liquid. Poach over medium heat for roughly 10 minutes, flipping them once halfway through. They should be just barely tender, not soft or mushy.

5. Arrange and Spice: Extract the apple halves using a slotted spoon. Arrange them cut side down in your baking dish. Dust evenly with the ground cinnamon and set aside.

6. Concentrate Syrup: Crank up the skillet heat to high and boil down the cooking syrup until it reduces to 1/2 cup of concentrated liquid.

7. Bake: Pour your reduced glaze syrup uniformly over the apples. Bake in your preheated 350°F oven for about 15 minutes.

8. Baste and Turn: Be sure to baste the fruit with the syrup once and flip the halves over one time while cooking so they caramelize perfectly.

When measuring sticky oils like sesame oil, coat the measuring spoon with a neutral oil first to help the sticky oil slide off easily. This simple trick prevents waste and mess by making sure of a more accurate measure and clean release from the spoon.
