Warm, fragrant, and naturally sweet, these stuffed baked apples are the kind of dessert that makes the whole kitchen smell incredible. Each apple is cored into a little cup and packed with plump raisins, maple syrup, and a warming blend of Ceylon cinnamon and ginger — then roasted until the skins wrinkle and the filling turns sticky and caramelized. A splash of water in the baking dish creates a light, spoonable syrup that you drizzle right back over the apples before serving, which takes the whole thing to another level. The recipe is naturally free of eggs without any substitutions or workarounds — just wholesome pantry staples doing exactly what they're supposed to do. Coconut oil keeps the filling rich and glossy, while the optional turmeric adds a subtle earthiness and a gorgeous golden hue if you're feeling adventurous. This is the kind of effortless, crowd-pleasing dessert that works just as well on a weeknight as it does at a dinner party.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Using an apple corer or melon baller, core each apple from the top, leaving the bottom intact to form a cup — remove a cavity about 1 inch wide and 1½ inches deep. Stand the apples upright in an 8×8-inch baking dish.
In a small bowl, stir together the raisins, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, Ceylon cinnamon, ginger, turmeric (if using), and sea salt until evenly combined.
