Step 1
Prepare the turkey carcass. Wash it thoroughly and let it dry. In a separate container, prepare the marinade for basting the meat. Put honey, mustard, salt, and pepper into a bowl. Mix well. If the honey has crystallized, melt it first in a water bath.

Step 2
Remove the cores from the apples. There's no need to peel them. Slice most of the apples into wedges to stuff the bird with. Leave the rest whole for garnishing the dish. Generously rub the turkey with the marinade. Stuff it with the apples.

Step 3
Take toothpicks and use them to secure the turkey's cavity so that the apples don't fall out during cooking, and the meat remains tender and juicy. If you have special kitchen twine, you can sew up the cavity with it instead.

Step 4
Pour a little vegetable oil into a roasting bag to prevent the turkey from sticking. Place the bird in the bag on a baking sheet and roast in the oven at 180 degrees for about 1.5 hours. Then cut open the bag and bake the turkey for another 10 minutes to form a crispy crust.
