Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Grease a large baking dish with olive oil and set aside.
Take an apple and remove the top 2 cm of the apple, stem still in-tact. Use a corer to remove the core of apple from the bottom piece. Place the apple into the baking dish and the apple top next to it. Repeat this step with the remaining apples.
Make the oatmeal stuffing by adding coconut sugar, rolled oats, oat flour and pecans into a bowl. Stir to combine. Add the butter to the bowl and use fingertips to rub the butter into the oat mixture. Once combined, use fingers to stuff mixture into each cored apple, with a small amount spilling out of the apple.
Once all apples are stuffed, place baking dish into the oven and bake for 30 minutes. Once baked, remove from the oven.
To serve, place a stuffed apple onto a plate and place the baked apple top on top. Serve warm with a scoop of ice cream (if desired).
Notes
To make this recipe dairy free, simply replace the butter for a vegan butter. Alternatively, the butter can be substituted for coconut oil, just be aware that the stuffing may not stick together as well once baked. It will still taste delicious though!If you cannot source oat flour, make your own by placing rolled oats into a blender and blitzing on high until the oats resemble a flour like consistency.Nutrition Facts are an estimate only.
