Ingredients
6 large Rome apples, cored and peeled
¼ cup light brown sugar
¼ teaspoon cinnamon
¼ cup apple cider or applejack
½ cup grenadine
2 Granny Smith apples, peeled and cored
2 cups sugar
1 cup apple cider
3 tablespoons dark rum
3 tablespoons applejack
1 quart vanilla ice cream
Preparation
- Step 1
For the Rome apples, preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Place the apples in a baking dish. Combine the brown sugar and cinnamon and stuff in the apple cavities. Mix cider with grenadine and drizzle over the apples. Bake until tender, about 1 hour, basting every 5 minutes. Cool to room temperature.
- Step 2
For the syrup, dice the Granny Smith apples into ¼-inch cubes. Over medium-high heat, cook sugar and cider until sugar is caramelized, about 30 minutes.
- Step 3
Add rum and applejack and cook 1 minute. Remove from the heat and stir in the diced apples. Ladle the warm syrup over the baked apples. Top with vanilla ice cream. Serve.

Was searching for this recipe because I had lots of thyme growing and remembered it from the 60 Minute Gourmet. Had no shallots so had to make with scallions. Still delicious, and so easy!
