Directions

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.

  2. Core the apples, making sure to leave the bottoms intact. Cut off the top of each apple, about 1/4 inch from the top.

  3. In a medium bowl, combine 2 tablespoons lime juice and 2 cups water. Soak the apples in the water for about 5 minutes to prevent browning.

  4. In another bowl, add almond butter, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla extract, remaining lime juice, and pumpkin spice. Mix together.

  5. Remove apples from water and pat dry. Stuff each apple with 1 tablespoon almond butter mixture. Once all apples are stuffed, place them in a deep baking dish. Add about 1/2 inch water to the baking dish, and make sure apples are upright in the water. (The water keeps the apples from drying out.) Bake for 1 hour. While the apples bake, keep an eye on the water level; add more water if needed.

  6. Once apples are fork tender, remove from baking dish and serve.
