Ingredients:

1 cup

Sugar

1 tbsp

Heavy Cream

Directions:

1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F

2

Core the apples

3

Using a paring knife, score a ring around the midriff of each apple, just cutting through the skin to prevent the apples from bursting during baking

4

Stuff the apples with the figs and almonds

5

Set on a baking sheet, and bake until puffed up and soft all the way through, about 30 minutes

6

Meanwhile, put the sugar in a saucepan with a spoonful of water, and boil to a golden caramel, about 5 minutes, depending on how much water you've added

7

Do not stir the sugar with a spoon, gently swirl the saucepan over the heat until the desired color

8

You want a nice rich caramel color, but don't let it get too dark

9

Serve the baked apples warm from the oven with the sauce poured over and with a generous slump of cinnamon whipped cream or creme fraiche on the side
