Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 3 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Chopped pecans (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Core and slice the apples into 1/4 inch thick pieces, leaving the skins on for added nutrients and texture.
In a small bowl, combine the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, salt, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Stir well to create a uniform mixture.
Place the apple slices in a large mixing bowl. Pour the coconut oil and spice mixture over the apples, tossing them until they are evenly coated.
Spread the apple slices out in a single layer on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Sprinkle the chopped pecans over the top of the apple slices if using.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, tossing halfway through, until the apples are tender and lightly caramelized.
Remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving. They can be served warm or at room temperature.
Enjoy your Vegan Baked Apple Slices as a delightful snack or a tasty dessert!
