Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Core the apples using an apple corer or a sharp knife, creating a cavity in the center without cutting through the bottom of the apple.
Brush the insides of the apples with lemon juice to prevent browning and set them aside.
In a medium bowl, combine the butter, ground cinnamon, chopped pecans, almond flour, granulated erythritol, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix until a crumbly mixture forms.
Stuff each apple evenly with the pecan mixture, pressing down slightly to compact the filling.
Place the stuffed apples in a baking dish, making sure they are upright and stable.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until the apples are tender and the topping is golden brown.
Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve warm.
