Step 4
Place the apples in an ovenproof dish, just large enough to hold them.
Step 5
In a small bowl, combine the walnuts, currants, sugar (or substitute), cinnamon and orange zest; add 1 tablespoon of the orange juice and stir to combine.
Step 6
Evenly divide the filling between the apple holes, then spoon the remaining juice over the apples.
Step 7
Cover the dish with baking paper, then cover with foil.
Step 8
Cook for 30 - 40 minutes, or until the apples a very tender.
Step 9
Remove and discard foil and baking paper.
