Baked Granola Apple

  • Prep time 25 mins
  • Cook time 20 mins

An absolutely fantastic snack or dessert, I like to think of this as a healthy replacement to apple pie. With absolutely no flour and no sugar, you can make up a batch of these and enjoy them with nutritious comfort right from the fridge or served warm with a dollop of delicious Tree Island yogurt.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350° F with the rack in the center of the oven.
  2. Mix together all of the ingredients for the granola and stir until evenly distributed.  Set aside.
  3. Cut the apples in half horizontally so that the stem is on one half and the bottom is on the other.
  4. Now carefully carve out the apple core, making a small well in the apple.  In the end it should almost look like a bowl.  This will hold the almond butter and granola.
  5. Spread 1 – 2 tablespoons of almond butter on each apple half so that there is a thin layer covering the cut side.
  6. Now mound the granola on top of the apple and almond butter.  Make sure that you pack it down gently so that it stays put.  Arrange on a baking tray
  7. Bake for 15 – 20 minutes or until the granola is lightly browned and the apples are cooked.
  8. Spoon some yogurt over top of the warm apples and enjoy this awesome dessert.

Variations

  • You could also make this with pears instead of apple.
  • Any homemade granola recipe will work well for this recipe, so feel free to experiment.
