Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).

Step 2

Core the apples using an apple corer or a paring knife, being careful not to pierce through the bottom.

Step 3

In a medium bowl, combine the oats, pecans, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.

Step 4

Pour the melted butter over the mixture and stir until well combined.

Step 5

Fill each apple with the oat mixture, pressing it down gently to pack it in.

Step 6

Place the apples in a baking dish and pour the apple cider or water into the bottom of the dish.

Step 7

Bake the apples for 35 to 45 minutes, or until they are tender and the filling is golden brown.

Step 8

Let them cool slightly before serving.

Chef’s notes

For a twist, try adding raisins or dried cranberries to the filling.

Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
