Honey Tips

How Honey Is Created

Honey is created when bees mix plant nectar, a sweet substance secreted by flowers, with their own bee enzymes.

Directions

Preheat oven to 350&deg.
Using a small sharp knife or melon baller, remove the stem and core of each apple leaving the bottom intact. Stand apples up in a baking dish.
Crush candy bar in a plastic bag by hitting it with a mallet. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of candy bits around the apples. Divide remaining pieces evenly among the cavity of each apple. Place ½ tablespoon of butter in each cavity.
Gently warm cider, honey and ginger stirring just until honey is incorporated. Pour over apples and into cavities.
Bake about 1 hour and 10 minutes or until apples are tender, basting occasionally with sauce.
To serve, spoon sauce over apples and serve with ice cream if desired.
