Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 4 large apples preferably Honeycrisp or Fuji, cored
- 1 tbsp lemon juice to prevent browning
- 1 tbsp pure maple syrup divided
- 0.5 tsp cinnamon ground
- 1.5 cups plain Greek yogurt whole milk or low-fat
- 0.5 cup granola gluten-free if needed
- 0.25 cup chopped walnuts optional, for topping
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
- Halve the apples and remove the core. Brush the cut sides with lemon juice to prevent browning.
- Place the apple halves cut-side up in the baking dish. Drizzle 0.5 tbsp of the maple syrup over the apples and sprinkle with cinnamon.
- Cover the dish with foil and bake for 15 minutes.
- Remove the foil and baste the apples with a little of the released liquid. Return to oven, uncovered, and bake for another 10 minutes or until tender.
- While apples bake, mix the Greek yogurt with the remaining 0.5 tbsp maple syrup.
- Scoop a generous spoonful of seasoned yogurt into the center of each apple half.
- Top with granola and a sprinkle of chopped walnuts. Serve warm or room temperature.
Notes
For extra flavor, add a pinch of nutmeg or cardamom to the yogurt. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently before serving.
