Ingredients
- 3 tbsp. apple cider vinegar
- 1 cup apple juice
- 3 tbsp. unsalted butter, cut into pieces
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 8 Gala apples
- 3 tbsp. brandy
- 1/2 cup crème fraiche
- Vanilla Ice Cream
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Combine vinegar, juice, butter and sugar in a 13 x 9-inch glass-baking dish.
Cut off top 3/4 inch of apples to make lids.
Scoop out cores with a melon-ball cutter and replace lids.
Put apples in baking dish and cover with foil.
Bake in middle of oven until very tender but still intact, 1 to 1-1/4 hours.
Transfer apples to plates and boil pan juices with brandy in a saucepan until reduced to about 1 cup.
Fill apples with crème fraiche and serve with sauce, or top baked apple with vanilla ice cream, and spoon sauce over ice cream.
