BAKED APPLES WITH GREEK YOGURT AND HONEY
2 firm, tart apples
4 teaspoons brown sugar
Zest from 1/4 lemon
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 heaping tablespoons dried cranberries
1/2 cup apple cider or water
2 teaspoons honey
Greek yogurt
Handful of coarsely chopped pistachios
Preheat toaster oven to 350 degrees F.
Core the apples and set them standing up in the toaster oven a baking pan. Squeeze lemon juice into the cavities of both apples.
In a small bowl, combine the sugar, lemon zest, nutmeg, cinnamon and dried cranberries. Spoon the mixture into the apple cavities and scatter any that is left into the pan.
Pour apple cider over the apples until it lines the bottom of the pan and cover tightly with aluminum foil. (Check your manufacturer's instructions, however, for any cautions against the use of aluminum foil in your toaster oven.)
Bake the apples until they are tender but not mushy, about 30 minutes, basting at least once with the syrup in the bottom of the pan.
Place the apples in a shallow bowl and spoon with the syrup. Serve with a dollop of yogurt drizzled with honey and chopped pistachios. Or replace the yogurt and honey with vanilla ice cream.
