Ingredients
  • 3 pieces apples
  • 120 grams bananas, sliced
  • 30 grams pecans, roughly chopped
  • 25 grams coconut sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground green cardamom
  • 15 milliliters oil
  • 60 milliliters water
Directions
  1. Pre-heat the oven to 175C/350F.
  2. Cut the tops of apples off and scoop out the flesh from the centre. Keep apples submerged in acidulated water (bowl of water plus about a tablespoon of lemon juice or apple cider vinegar) to keep them from oxidising.
  3. Roughly chop the scooped out apple flesh.
  4. In a bowl, toss chopped apples, bananas, pecans, coconut sugar, coconut oil and the spices.
  5. Stuff the apples with the mixture and sprinkle some coconut sugar on top.
  6. Arrange apples upright in an oven safe dish. Pour about a 60ml/2fl oz of water into the dish.
  7. Bake for 30 minutes.
