2tablespoonsbrown sugar
1/2teaspoonsapple pie spiceor ground cinnamon
2Tablespoonpecanschopped
2Tablespoonsraisins or dried cranberries
1tablespoonsbutter
1/2cupwaterfor the air fryer basket
Instructions
Wash and dry the apples. Core the apples by cutting around the stem with a knife. Then use a melon baller or spoon to remove the core and seeds, leaving the bottom of the apple intact.
2 large or medium apples
Mix the brown sugar, apple pie spice, pecans and raisins in a small bowl.
2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoons apple pie spice, 2 Tablespoon pecans, 2 Tablespoons raisins or dried cranberries
Spoon the filling into the middle of the cored apples.
Cut the butter into small pieces and put some inside the apples, on top of the filling.
1 tablespoons butter
Put 1/2 cup water in the bottom of the air fryer, underneath the basket, so that the apples steam and stay moist as they cook.
1/2 cup water
Place the filled apples in the air fryer basket and cook at 350 degrees F for 15 minutes.
Notes
Serve topped with caramel sauce or a scoop of vanilla ice cream if desired.
Any baking apple works well in this recipe. Some favorites are Cortland, Granny Smith, Fuji, Fortune and Honeycrisp.
You can also just cut the apples in half, cut the core out, and then air fry the apple halves.
Replace the butter with coconut oil or soy based butter to make this vegan.
To bake in the oven place them in a pan with an inch of water and cook at 375 for 35-45 minutes.
