Cinnamon Baked Apples

A delicious dessert that looks great. These apples are also excellent served cold the next morning for breakfast.

  • 6 Large Organic Apples*
  • 6 Organic Cinnamon Sticks
  • 6 Organic Medjool Dates
  • 1⁄2 c Organic Hazelnuts or Almonds
  • 2 T Organic Butter
  • 1 pn Organic Cinnamon
  • 1 T Organic Raw Sugar

Preheat the oven to 160°C.
Roughly chop nuts and place on a baking tray. Bake in oven for 5-10 minutes or until golden. Remove from tray and cool. Remove the core from the apples and make a thin  slit around the middle, using a paring knife. Remove the stones from the dates, and chop 3 of them in half, pushing 1 half into the base of the apple (to hold the filing). roughly chop the remaining dates, and mix with the nuts, butter, ground cinnamon and sugar. Push this mixture into the middle of the apples, then insert a cinnamon stick into each. Bake for 25 minutes or until the apples are just soft. Serve warm with Organic  cream or ice cream.
