Ingredients
- 4 thick-skinned mildly sweet apples, such as 'Rome Beauty'
- 3 tablespoons packed dark-brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped toasted pecans, plus more for sprinkling
- 1/2 large vanilla bean, halved lengthwise, seeds scraped and reserved
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Using a cylindrical apple corer, core apples three-quarters of the way down. Fit snugly in an ovenproof skillet or a loaf pan.
-
Stir together sugar, butter, nuts, vanilla seeds, and salt in a small bowl. Divide sugar mixture among apples (about 2 teaspoons each). Sprinkle with nuts. Bake until apples are soft, about 1 hour. Serve warm with pan syrup spooned on top.
