Gluten Free Dairy Free Baked Apples

A recipe from my childhood, I simply love Gluten Free Dairy Free Baked Apples. Here is a basic recipe which you can easily adapt for your taste.

Ingredients:

1 tbsp brown sugar

1 tsp cinnamon

1/4 tsp ground nutmeg

1/4 cup pecans (finely chopped)

4 medium apple

1 tbsp dairy free butter

3/4 cup water (boiling)

Method:

Preheat the oven to 175°C / 160° Fan / 350°F / Gas Mark 4.

Combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and chopped pecans in a bowl. This will serve as a filling for the baked apples.

Core each apple using a knife or apple corer. I prefer to leave roughly ½ inch of the apple at the bottom to serve as a sturdy base.

Fill each apple with filling and top with a small square of dairy free butter.

Bake apples for 35 – 40 minutes in a baking dish filled with hot water. Apples should be tender but not overcooked.

Additional Notes:

Add nuts of your choice or dried fruit. You can make the baked apples uniquely yours.

Serve as a pudding with Coconut Whipped Cream, or Vanilla ice cream.
