6 large Golden Delicious apples (about 3 1/2 pounds)
2/3 cup plus 6 tablespoons coarsely chopped pecans
1/3 cup golden raisins
1/4 cup sweetened flaked coconut
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel

Using small sharp knife, cut about 1 1/4-inch-wide, 1-inch-deep hollow in top of each apple. Cut off thin slice from bottom of each to allow apples to stand flat. Place apples in 13x9x2-inch glass baking dish.

Provided by erinstargirl

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 organic, local apples
1/2 cup homemade organic pecan butter - recipe: http://www.keyingredient.com/recipes/772825036/homemade-pecan-butter/
1/2 cup organic dried cranberries
1 tsp organic cinnamon
2 TB organic extra virgin coconut oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350° F. Using a melon baller, scoop out each apple's stem and continue down past the seed cavities. Don't take away too much of the apple itself, leave enough room for 1/4 cup of filling in each apple. In a saucepan, heat the pecan butter, dried cranberries, cinnamon, and coconut oil over low heat, stirring occasionally. Once the coconut oil has melted, the mixture will come together easily. Remove from heat. Place the apples in a casserole pan. Spoon about 1/4 cup of the filling into each apple. Place the pan in the oven and bake for 35 minutes. Cool slightly before digging in.
