Bratapfel is a classic German winter and Christmas dessert: baked apple with a raisin-and-almond filling and vanilla sauce. The scent of baked apple and cinnamon drifting through the house recalls Advent. Simple, yet special.
Wash the apples, cut off the tops and scoop out the cores with a spoon, without cutting through the bottom.
Soak the raisins in the rum or apple juice for 10 minutes.
Mix the raisins with the almonds, honey and cinnamon.
Fill the apples with the mixture, put a little butter on each and replace the “hat”.
Bake in an oven preheated to 180°C for 30-35 minutes until the apple is soft.
For the sauce, heat the milk and cream; beat the yolks with the sugar, pour in the hot milk, then thicken over low heat, stirring; flavour with vanilla.
Serve the apples warm with the sauce.

Tips

Do not boil the sauce, just thicken it while stirring.
