Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium apples
- 0.5 cup chopped walnuts
- 0.25 cup raisins
- 0.25 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons ghee
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Rinse and dry the apples. Using a paring knife or apple corer, core each apple, removing the stems and seeds. Be careful not to cut through the bottom of the apple.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the chopped walnuts, raisins, shredded coconut, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg.
Stuff each apple with the walnut-raisin mixture, pressing it down gently until full.
Place the stuffed apples in a baking dish, ensuring they are sitting upright.
Drizzle the lemon juice evenly over the top of the apples.
Dot each apple with a small amount of ghee, placing it on the top of the stuffing in each apple.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 15 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the stuffing is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your Whole30 Classic Baked Apples warm.
