  • First, get the oven preheating to 350°F (180°C). While it heats up, prep everything else. Wash the apples well. Almost any variety works, but firmer, slightly tart apples are best — very starchy types can lose their shape as they bake. Wash them in warm water, scrubbing thoroughly, then dry with a clean towel. Slice a "lid" off the top of each apple and carefully scoop out the core, keeping the apple intact. Leave the skin on and don't cut through the bottom, so each apple becomes a little "cup." In a medium bowl, stir together the ground spices — cloves, cinnamon, and nutmeg — then add the brown sugar and chopped walnuts and mix well. Fill the prepared apples with this mixture. Pour water into a baking dish (drinking water is fine). Set the apples in carefully and top each one with a piece of butter, dividing the 20 g among the four. Cover the dish with a double layer of foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. If the apples aren't tender by then, give them another 5–10 minutes. While the apples bake, make the caramel sauce: heat the granulated sugar in a heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat, melting it to an amber color — watch closely so it doesn't burn. Melt the butter and whip the cream, then stir both into the caramel and mix well. Be extra careful here so you don't get burned. Take the pan off the heat and let the caramel cool a little. Serve the baked apples warm, drizzled with caramel and topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Enjoy!
