Makes one serving
Ingredients
One large apple (my favorites to use are Fuji apples)
1/4 cup of rolled oats
1/8 cup (two tbsp) crushed walnuts
one tbsp pure maple syrup or raw honey
one tsp grass-fed ghee or coconut oil
one tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp ceylon cinnamon
dash of pumpkin spice
tiny sprinkle of sea salt
Optional toppings:
coconut yogurt (my favorite is cocojune)
greek yogurt
whipped cream
vanilla ice cream
more chopped walnuts
Method:
preheat your oven to 380F
wash your apple and slice it directly down the center to make two halves
scoop a little out of the center to create a slight bowl shape (don’t scoop too deep; you don’t want to break the sides or bottom!)
set apple halves aside on a baking sheet
in a bowl, add oats, crushed walnuts, maple syrup, vanilla extract, coconut oil or ghee, cinnamon, pumpkin spice and sea salt
mix everything together
add oat mixture into the center of each 1/2 of apple
bake at 380F for 25-30 minutes
top with your favorite toppings and an extra sprinkle of cinnamon
