Brush the apples with jam and sprinkle with chopped hazelnuts. Bake in the lower part of the preheated oven at 180°C for about 35-40 minutes until golden yellow. Cover the apples with aluminum foil after half the baking time. Note: Keeps fresh for 3 days but it always gets eaten up quickly!!! If you wish, you can add the zest of one lemon or vanilla to the base and cinnamon to the apples.
