Method
- Preheat the oven to 200C, fan force.
- Place the KANZI® apple halves flat side down and cut a slit every 2-3 mm, making sure you don’t slice all the way through the apple. Repeat to the rest of your apple half. Place KANZI® apples flat side down into a baking dish.
- In a small bowl mix together melted butter, cinnamon, nutmeg, brown sugar and salt. Use a pastry brush to coat the KANZI® (underneath and on top) with 3 ⁄4 of the cinnamon mixture.
- Cover the dish with tin foil and cook for 20 - 25 minutes or until the apples are tender.
- Meanwhile, make the whipped cream - in a large mixing bowl or bowl of a stand mixer, add cream, sugar and vanilla extract. Beat until medium peaks form then set aside in the fridge.
- Make the oat crumb - in a medium bowl, combine the oats, flour, and sugar. Add the cold chopped butter and rub with your fingertips until it looks like chunky sand.
- Remove KANZI® apples from the oven and brush with remaining cinnamon mixture (try to get it in between the slits!)
- Sprinkle the oat topping over the apples and place back in the oven for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown. Serve with fresh whipped cream.
