Baked apple and caramelised pecorino Gran Murgiano

Baked apple and caramelised pecorino Gran Murgiano

For 4 servings

  • 4 apples (golden or Murgiana)
  • 800g pecorino Gran Murgiano
  • 4 tablespoons of honey
  • Candied oranges (as required)
  • Brown sugar (as required)

Method

Wrap the apples in tin foil and cook in the oven at 180° for 25 minutes. Take out the pulp from the apples with a spoon and mix with pieces of pecorino, honey and candied oranges. Fill in the apples, sprinkle with brown sugar and cook in the oven at 200° for 10 minutes. Serve hot.

This dessert plays upon the contrast between textures and the sweet, salty and scorched flavours.
