Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Step 2

Slice the Apples (2) in half close to the stems, making 2 apple 'lids'.

Step 3

Core the bottom halves. You can use an apple corer if you got one or a sharp knife. Make sure the apples stay in one piece.

Step 4

Brush the top of the apples with the juice from Lemon (1) and place the lids back on them. Place the apples in an oven dish.

Step 5

Place the apples in a preheated oven at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 30 minutes. After that let the apples cool a little.

Step 6

In the meantime, roughly crush the Pistachios (1 handful) and lightly toast them over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes while tossing them regularly.

Step 7

Place the baked lukewarm apples onto plates and top them with a tablespoon of the Ricotta Cheese (2 Tbsp) . Sprinkle with the toasted nuts, Fresh Mint Leaves (4) , Ground Cinnamon (1/4 tsp) , and Honey (2 Tbsp) . Serve immediately.
