4. 4Top each apple off with a whole nut if desired and sprinkle with sugar.

7. 7Bake the apples at 180 °C for 15-20 minutes, until well softened.
8. 8When the apples are ready, garnish with cinnamon and finely chopped walnuts, and serve immediately.
9. 9These baked apples are even more scrumptious served with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream or yogurt.
