Step by Step guide

Step 1

Rinse the duck and pat it dry with a paper towel. Rub the duck with salt and pepper. Place 3–4 apples, cinnamon, nutmeg, and a bay leaf inside the duck. Put the duck in a baking dish and drizzle with lemon juice.

Step 2

Preheat the oven to 428°F and place the duck in a roasting pan inside. Roast the duck for one hour, occasionally removing the pan to baste the duck with the fat that has rendered from the meat.

Step 3

After an hour, reduce the oven temperature to 320°F, place the remaining apples in the dish with the duck, drizzle them with the rendered duck fat, and bake for another 20 minutes.
