Directions
1. Preheat oven to 375°F.

4. In a small bowl, combine the walnuts, raisins, brown sugar, Ceylon Cinnamon and a small pinch of Himalayan Pink Salt.
5. Spoon the mixture into the center of each apple half.
6. Drizzle the apples lightly with Butter EVOO, making sure a little reaches both the filling and exposed apple.
7. Pour the apple juice or water into the bottom of the baking dish. Cover loosely with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
8. Remove the foil and continue baking for another 5–10 minutes, until the apples are tender but still hold their shape and the filling is warm and caramelized.
9. Spoon a little of the warm liquid from the baking dish over the apples before serving.

Little Kitchen Helpers
Kids can help mix the filling, spoon it into the apples and drizzle the Butter EVOO. An adult should handle cutting and coring the apples and placing the baking dish in the oven.

Divine Tip
Choose apples that hold their shape when baked, such as Honeycrisp, Gala or Fuji. You want them soft and tender, but not so soft that they fall apart when served.
