Description
This delicious recipe is the perfect ending to a meal, it’s easy and has no sugar added but is sweet enough to still be called dessert!
Ingredients
4–5 apples (We used Honeycrisp apples because we love them, but you can use whatever apples you like)
1/2 cup rolled oats – use gluten-free if needed
1/2 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour, we love Better Batter
1/4 cup coconut sugar
1/4 cup chopped pecans
2 Tablespoons melted coconut oil
2 Tablespoons coconut sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Vegan vanilla ice cream (optional)
Instructions
1.) Preheat oven to 400°. Wash and carefully core each apple and spoon out enough flesh to leave a hole for the filling.
2.) Prepare the filling by combining all the dry ingredients in a bowl and stir or whisk to combine.
3.) Add the vanilla and melted coconut oil and still to combine.
4.) Place the cored apples in a small oven-proof dish (we used a 9×9 square dish) and fill each apple with the filling.
4.) Bake uncovered for 30 minutes and for the last 10-15minutes* of baking, place a sheet of foil on top to make sure the filling doesn’t burn.
5.) Remove from the oven and top with vanilla ice cream if you like and enjoy!
Notes
The time in the oven will vary due to the size of your apple. You want to make sure that your apples are fork-tender (cooked enough if you inserted a fork into the apple, it would insert easily).
