Baked Apples with Remonce

Baked apples with remonce (Danish pastry filling, sometime called Lord Mayor filling)

Make a remonce of Muscovado sugar, marzipan and butter by kneading them all together thoroughly.

Core the apples, fill them with remonce and place them on a fire-proof dish.

Place the apples in Forno and bake until cooked (approx. 20-30 min. depending on how hot the oven is)

Toast the hazelnuts in a dry pan, chop coarsely and set them to one side.

Cut open the vanilla pod and scrape out the vanilla seeds. Rub the vanilla seeds into a little cane sugar and stir into the crème fraîche.

Arrange the baked apples on a plate with the toasted hazelnuts and crème fraîche.

Sprinkle a little flaked salt over the apples before serving.
