4 servings
- 4 medium baking apples (such as honeycrisp or braeburn)
- 3 tbsp coconut oil, melted
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1 tsp ground ceylon cinnamon
Ingredient noteInterstitial cystitis treats warming spices like cinnamon as test-your-tolerance because they can irritate a sensitive bladder, but the small amount in this recipe (~1/4 tsp per serving) is likely tolerated by many. If you prefer to always avoid cinnamon, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- ¼ tsp ground ginger
Ingredient noteGround ginger is generally considered bladder-friendly, and the small amount in this recipe (~1/16 tsp per serving) is likely fine for many people with interstitial cystitis. If you prefer to always avoid ground ginger, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- ¼ tsp ground turmeric
Ingredient noteTurmeric can trigger interstitial cystitis symptoms in some people, but the small amount in this recipe (~1/16 tsp per serving) is likely tolerated by many. If you prefer to always avoid turmeric, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- ⅛ tsp fine sea salt
- ½ cup water
- 2 tbsp unsweetened shredded coconut (optional)
Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Using a melon baller or a sturdy spoon, core each apple from the top, removing the seeds and creating a cavity about 1 inch wide and 1½ inches deep — stop before breaking through the bottom.
