    1 Preheat oven to 180°C. On a board, place one apple half, cut-side down. Make thin, evenly spaced cuts at 5mm intervals, to about two-thirds of the way through. Repeat with remaining apple halves. In a large baking dish, place apples in a single layer.

    2 In a small bowl, combine sugar, spread and cinnamon. Brush the cinnamon mixture over apples. Bake, covered, for 30 minutes, or until the apples are just tender. Take out and cool.

    3 Meanwhile, in a bowl, combine all the crumble ingredients until crumbs form.

    4 When apples are cool to touch (about 10 minutes), fan open the apple slices before scattering with the pecan crumble. Bake apples for a further 15 minutes, or until golden and tender.

    5 Serve apples warm, topped with a small scoop of ice cream. Pear and double chocolate crumble
