These spooky apples, with their eerie appearance and deliciously spooktacular flavour, are the ultimate Halloween dessert or treat! Super easy recipe to make with the kids. Serve with ice cream for an extra chill!

Ingredients

  • 4 apples
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • ¼ cup dried apricots, chopped
Crumble
  • 1/4 cup oats
  • ½ cup almond flour
  • 1 tablespoon flaked almonds
  • 3 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Slice the tops off the apples and chop them into pieces. Place the apple pieces into a bowl of water.
  2. Using a sharp knife, carefully cut three triangles on one side of each apple to create a mouth and two eyes.
  3. Using a melon baller or melon scoop, scoop out the middle of the apples. Remove the seeds and core, and place them into a bowl of water.
  4. Squeeze some citrus juice over the hollowed-out apples.
  5. To make the crumble, combine the oats, almond flour, sliced almonds, honey, and melted butter in a bowl. Set aside.
  6. In a pan, add a knob of butter. When the butter has melted, add the apples and chopped dried apricots, then sprinkle in the cinnamon. Cook for about 10 minutes until they soften, stirring frequently. Pour in the honey and cook for a further 2 minutes.
  7. Place the hollowed-out apples onto a baking tray. Fill the hollow apples with the apple and apricot filling and press down slightly to create space for the crumble topping. Divide the crumble topping on top of each apple and press it down to compress.
  8. Place the filled apples into the oven at 180 degrees for 15 minutes. Then, switch to the grill setting for a further 5-7 minutes to brown the crumble. Keep a close eye on it to prevent it from burning.
  9. Remove from the oven and serve with ice cream.
