Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 180 °C with top and bottom heat, so it is hot when you put the apples in.
  2. Remove the core from each apple with a knife, being careful not to pierce through it.
  3. Make sure no seeds remain inside.
  4. Place the apples on the tray where you will bake them.
  5. Fill the holes completely with sugar, ground cinnamon and a splash of rum. If you removed a lot of flesh, recover the part without seeds, cut it into small pieces and put it back in the hole.
  6. Sprinkle more sugar and cinnamon on the tray and add a little rum, so that the syrup also forms in the tray.

  7. Put the tray in the center of the oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until the apples are soft and the skin peels away.
  8. Serve them hot, alone or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.
