  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (softened)
  • 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Core the apples: Leaving the bottoms intact to create a well for the filling.

  3. Stuff the apples: Press the oat mixture lightly into each apple.

  6. Cool and serve: Let the apples cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
  • For a dairy-free version, use plant-based butter.
  • Apples can be prepped ahead and stored in the fridge until ready to air fry.
