4 servings
- 4 large firm baking apples (such as honeycrisp or braeburn)
Ingredient noteCooking often breaks down the heat-sensitive proteins that trigger oral allergy syndrome, so the cooked apple in this recipe is likely tolerated by many with OAS. If unsure, consult your doctor. To always avoid apple, tap it and change its rating to Red.
- ¾ cup raw walnuts, roughly chopped
Chef's tipUse the same amount, keeping the same form - whole, chopped, or toasted. - 3 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, finely grated
- 1 tsp ground cardamom
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- ¼ tsp ground turmeric
- ⅛ tsp fine sea salt
- 2 tbsp coconut oil, melted
- ½ cup water
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
For serving
- 2 tbsp pomegranate seeds (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, leaving a solid 1/2-inch base so the filling stays in.

In a small mixing bowl, stir together the walnuts, honey, grated ginger, cardamom, cinnamon, turmeric, salt, and melted coconut oil until the mixture is evenly coated and holds together loosely.
