Roasting Plank Baked Apples
This is another traditional recipe that can given a new twist by cooking it on wood. Cedar is an amazing wood because of its sweet and spicyness that compliments fish and seafood so well but also fruit such as apples or pineapples.
I prefer to use the Cedar Roasting Plank or BBQ Plank for Baked Apples because of the amazing flavour of Cedar but any of the woods could be used and all of the woods can be soaked in apple cider or apple juice to add an even greater flavour.
| Ingredients |
|---|
| 4 baking apples 1 tbsp brown suger 1 heaped tbsp sultanas or raisins 1 tsp ground cinnamon 1 tbsp runny honey 1 pear, peeled and diced 1 banana, peeled and diced
serves 4 |
1. Core the apples, leaving the bottom intact.
2. Mix together the brown sugar, raisons, sultanas, cinnamon and carefully fold in the chopped pear and banana with the honey.
3. Fill the apples with the mixture.
4. Place the apples into a pre-heated oven ( Gas Mark 5) on your pre-soaked Roasting Plank and bake slowly for 40-45 minutes until the apples are soft and tender but not too mushy.
5. Place the plank onto your table and serve with some ice-cream or custard.
Don't stop with apples though if you love steamed fruit then you will love cooking on a Cedar Roasting Plank or BBQ Plank - next time try plums or pears.
