Ingredients

• 4 pieces Large apples (e.g., Honeycrisp or Fuji)
• 0.5 cup Rolled oats
• 0.25 cup Chopped walnuts or pecans
• 0.25 cup Brown sugar (light or dark)
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 teaspoon Apple pie spice
• 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 pinch Pinch of salt
• 1 cup Water

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Wash and core the apples, ensuring you remove the seeds but leave about 1/2-inch of the bottom intact to create a 'bowl' for the filling.

Step 3

Place the cored apples upright in a baking dish, leaving some space between each apple.

Step 4

In a medium bowl, mix together the oats, chopped nuts, brown sugar, apple pie spice, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.

Step 5

Cut the unsalted butter into small cubes and work it into the oat mixture with your fingers until it resembles a coarse crumble.

Step 6

Spoon the oat mixture into the cored apples, packing it gently and mounding it on top as needed.

Step 7

Pour the water into the bottom of the baking dish to keep the apples moist during baking.

Step 8

Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.

Step 9

Remove the foil and bake uncovered for an additional 20 minutes, or until the apples are tender when pierced with a knife and the filling is golden brown.

Step 10

Carefully remove the baked apples from the oven and let them cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Step 11

Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
