Ingredients

  • 6 organic apples like Honeycrisp, Braeburn, or pink lady
  • 6 Medjool dates pitted and chopped
  • ¼ cup raw pecans crumbled
  • ¼ cup raw pumpkin seeds
  • ½ cup maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
  • Splash of water

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F.
  • Scoop out the core from top of the apple, leaving a well. Do not cut all the way through. Place in a glass pyrex dish.
  • Combine dates, pecans, and pumpkin seeds in a bowl. Evenly stuff the mixture into the well of each apple, leaving a small mound on top of each.
  • Drizzle with maple syrup and sprinkle with cinnamon.
  • Add a splash of water to the bottom of the pan to help prevent syrup from burning.
  • Bake for about 45 minutes or until the apples are tender, but not mushy. Use a spoon to use any of the liquid in the bottom of the pan to pour over each apple.
  • Remove from oven and cool to just warm.
