Nutty Coconut Baked Apples with Cider Sauce Prep Time: 25 minutes, Serves 6 If you have a hankering for apple pie, but can’t seem to nail down a grain-free pie crust (I feel your pain), this is a great alternative. You have the same soft, juicy apples, but with a sweet-tart cider sauce and a chewy nut-coconut mixture for contrast. Add a dollop of Whipped Coconut Cream (page 000) and you’ve got the perfect bowl of autumn. Directions Arrange the apples in a 6-quart (5.7 liter) slow cooker—just to make sure you’ve got room for all of them. Hollow out each apple by cutting an inch or so around the stem, toward the center. Remove the top and scoop out the core and seeds with a spoon. You don’t need to scrape out additional apple flesh. Squirt the insides and cut edges with the lemon juice to prevent browning. In a medium bowl, combine the walnuts, coconut, and dates. Drizzle in the honey and add the cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg. Mix well. Fill each apple with the nut mixture, pressing it in tightly. You may have a little bit of filling leftover. Add the cider, ghee, and coconut sugar to the slow cooker. Arrange the apples in the cider, standing upright. Cover and cook on low for 3 hours. Remove apples carefully with tongs and transfer them to a serving platter. Pour the cider syrup into a small bowl. Serve each apple with a generous drizzle of cider syrup and a dollop of Whipped Coconut Cream. 6 medium, tart baking apples (Pink Lady, Honeycrisp, or Jonagold work well) ½ lemon ¾ (90 g) cup raw, unsalted walnuts, chopped ¾ cup (60 g) unsweetened coconut flakes 6 Medjool dates, pitted and chopped 3 tablespoons (60 g) raw honey ¾ teaspoon cinnamon Pinch of sea salt Pinch of nutmeg 2 cups (475 ml) unsweetened apple cider tablespoons (43 g) Homemade Ghee or grass-fed butter ¼ cup (38 g) coconut sugar Whipped Coconut Cream, for serving (optional)
