  • 3 Gala apples or any variety you like
  • 3/4 cup chopped pecans
  • 1/2 cup raisins
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 3 tsp pure maple syrup
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Wash and dry apples.
  • Cut apples in half and scoop out seeds, core and cut a little bowl in the center of each apple. Place apples in a baking dish. (If apple half does not stand flat, cut a thin slice from the bottom of each apple)
  • In a bowl combine chopped pecans, raisins and cinnamon.
  • Add even amounts of the pecan mixture to the center of each apple.
  • Drizzle 2 tsp of the maple syrup over halved apples, and bake until apples are tender, about 30- 35 minutes. Apples are tender when pierced easily with a knife.
