Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
Pumpkin baked with apple and honey is a very delicate tasting and aromatic dessert. For cooking, the main thing is to choose the right ingredients. It is advisable to use orange pumpkin; it is usually sweeter than green varieties. It should be young, small in size, fresh and juicy. On the contrary, it is better to take apples that are a little hard so that they do not quickly fall apart during baking. Wash the pumpkin, clean it, remove the seeds. Cut the pulp into small cubes.

It is better to use a glass or ceramic baking dish, but not metal, so that the dessert does not acquire an unpleasant aftertaste from the metal. Grease the mold with butter. Place the prepared pumpkin pieces into the mold. Wash the apples thoroughly, preferably with soap. We remove the peel and remove the seed pod, also cut the pulp into cubes, but slightly larger than the pumpkin, since apples bake faster than pumpkin.
