Ingredients:
4 medium apples (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp work well)
1/2 cup Brie cheese, sliced
1/4 cup prosciutto or any other charcuterie (like salami or ham), chopped
1/4 cup walnuts, chopped
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon fresh thyme
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cut the apples into Hasselback style slices, making sure not to cut all the way through, leaving the bottom intact.
Place the apples on a baking dish and drizzle with olive oil, then season with salt and pepper.
Stuff each slit with a slice of Brie cheese and a small piece of charcuterie (prosciutto or your choice of meat).
Sprinkle the chopped walnuts and fresh thyme over the top of the apples.
Drizzle honey over the apples for a touch of sweetness.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the cheese has melted.
Once baked, garnish with extra fresh thyme and serve warm.
Enjoy this savory, sweet, and cheesy Hasselback apple bake!
