4 servings
- 4 medium apples (such as honeycrisp or braeburn)
- ¾ cup raw walnuts, roughly chopped
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- ¼ tsp ground ginger
- ⅛ tsp ground turmeric
- 1 tbsp coconut oil, melted
- ¼ tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 pinch salt
- ½ cup water
- 2 tbsp raisins (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Using a melon baller or small spoon, core each apple from the top, removing the seeds and creating a cavity about 1 inch wide and 2 inches deep — leave the bottom of the apple intact so the filling stays in place.

In a small bowl, stir together the chopped walnuts, honey, cinnamon, ginger, turmeric, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and salt until evenly combined. Fold in the raisins, if using.
