Warm, caramelized, and fragrant with cinnamon and ginger, this is the kind of dessert that makes the whole kitchen smell like autumn. Each apple is cored into a little cup and packed with plump raisins, maple syrup, and coconut oil before being baked until the skins wrinkle and the filling turns glossy and jammy. The optional turmeric adds a subtle earthiness without overpowering the sweetness, and spooning those pan juices back over the apples before serving is a step you absolutely should not skip. Everything in this recipe is naturally plant-based, so there's no need to swap a single ingredient to keep it meat- and egg-free. It's simple enough for a weeknight but impressive enough to serve to guests, especially with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of extra maple syrup alongside. The whole thing comes together in one baking dish with barely any prep, which makes cleanup just as satisfying as the eating.

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.
