"Baked" Apples

These are perfect when served on their own, but
even more decadent with a dollop of whipped
cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Makes 4 servings
2 tablespoons old-fashioned, rolled oats
2 tablespoons pecans
2 tablespoons unbleached,
all-purpose flour
¼ cup packed light brown sugar
½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
Pinch ground cardamom
Pinch kosher salt
4 tablespoons unsalted butter,
cold and cubed
4 medium to large apples,
a sweet-tart variety
½ cup water
½ cup packed light brown sugar
1. Put the first 9 ingredients (through the salt)
into the bowl of a Cuisinart
or chopper fitted with the chopping blade.
Process until combined. Add the cold butter
and pulse until combined – the mixture should
resemble an uneven crumb. Reserve in the
refrigerator until ready to stuff the apples.
2. Prepare the apples by coring each, but being
careful to keep the bottom intact. The easiest
way to do this is to first use a paring knife to
cut about a ½- to 1-inch circle out of the top
of the apple. Then, using a melon baller, scoop
out the remainder of the core as best as you
can, down to just the bottom of the apple
(you will want to be sure to remove all of the
seeds). Repeat with each apple.
3. Fill each apple cavity with the crumb topping,
packing it in as firmly as possible.
4. Put the ½ cup of water and ½ cup of brown
sugar into the cooking pot of the Cuisinart
Pressure Cooker. Stir to combine. Place the
apples into the pot so that they are standing
straight up.
5. Secure the lid and select Low Pressure.
Set the time for 5 minutes. When the audible
beep sounds, let pressure release naturally.
