1. Start preparing the baked stuffed apples by putting the amaretti biscuits into a bowl and crumbling them by hand. Chop the walnuts and almonds finely with a knife and add them to the biscuits, along with grated orange zest.

2. Wash the apples, dry them, and cut off the top. Hollow out the apples, leaving about ½ cm around the edge, and cut the pulp into small pieces.

3. Add a heaping teaspoon of cinnamon, the little pieces of apple, and the juice of half an orange (if it’s small, the whole thing) to the previous ingredients and mix well.

4. Fill the hollowed out apples with the mixture. Complete with a teaspoon of honey and put the apples into a baking dish. Put into the oven, pre-heated to 190°C, and bake for about 20-25 minutes.

5. Your baked stuffed apples are ready.
