Preparation
- Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place butter, zests, ginger, salt, honey, sugar and lemon juice in a food processor and process until smooth. Add nuts and cherries and process until mixture forms into a paste. Fill the centers of the apples with 2 to 3 tablespoons of the nut mixture.
- Step 2
Place the apples in a large, shallow baking dish. Bake for 35 minutes. Cover the apples with aluminum foil and bake until the apples are soft when pierced with a knife, about 20 minutes longer. Serve with vanilla ice cream, if desired.
