Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 6 large Honeycrisp or Granny Smith apples for that perfect balance of sweet and tart
  • 1 cup Feta cheese crumbled from block
  • ¼ cup Raw honey plus extra to drizzle
  • ½ cup Walnuts chopped or crushed
  • 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon or 2 cinnamon sticks
  • ¼ cup Unsalted butter melted
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract pure
  • 1 pinch Sea salt
  • 1 splash Water to add to baking dish

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F and prepare your pressure cooker and baking dish.
  • Core the apples carefully, leaving the bottom intact to hold the filling.
  • In a bowl, mix together feta cheese, honey, chopped walnuts, cinnamon, melted butter, vanilla, and sea salt.
  • Stuff the mixture into each apple and place them upright in the baking dish.
  • Drizzle a little extra honey over the stuffed apples if desired.
  • Add a splash of water to the bottom of the baking dish to keep apples moist.
  • Cover the dish loosely with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
  • Remove foil and bake for another 10 minutes.
  • Check apples for doneness — they should be soft but still hold their shape.

Notes

For extra sweetness and shine, drizzle more honey after baking. Store leftovers in the fridge up to 4 days or freeze unbaked apples for future cozy desserts.
