Stuffed Cinnamon Apples

a baked apple stuffed with walnuts and raisins

Prep Time:

15 minutes

Number of Servings:

Ingredients

¹⁄₃ cup chopped walnuts
¹⁄₄ cup golden raisins
1 Tbsp honey
1 tsp cinnamon
4 apples (Golden Delicious, Jonagold, or Rome Beauty work best)
¹⁄₂ cup apple juice or apple cider

Directions

Combine walnuts, raisins, honey, and cinnamon in a small bowl.
Core apples from their tops, leaving the bottom portions of the apples intact (so walnut-raisin mixture will not fall out).
Stuff each apple with the walnut-raisin mixture. Drizzle juice over apples.
Place apples in a 3-quart slow cooker. Cover and cook on Low for 6 hours or High for 4 hours, until apples are tender.

Notes

This delightful dessert also makes a wonderful breakfast. Serve the apples with a dollop of Greek yogurt for a filling morning meal. If you have a melon baller, use it to core the apples.
