Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Apples (medium, firm varieties like Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Fuji)
- 2 tablespoons Splenda (or other calorie-free sweetener)
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons Nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons Chopped walnuts (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Raisins (optional)
- 0.5 cups Water
- 0.25 cups Unsweetened apple juice (optional, for extra flavor)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish large enough to hold the apples upright.
Wash and core the apples, leaving about 1/2 inch of the bottom intact to create a 'cup' for the filling.
In a small bowl, mix Splenda, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, chopped walnuts (if using), and raisins (if using).
Fill each cored apple with the sweetener and spice mixture until evenly distributed.
Place the filled apples upright in the prepared baking dish.
Pour water (and apple juice, if using) into the bottom of the baking dish to help steam the apples and prevent burning.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil to trap the moisture and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the apples are tender but still hold their shape.
Carefully remove the baked apples from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving.
Optional: Serve with a dollop of fat-free whipped topping or a drizzle of sugar-free caramel sauce for extra indulgence.
