Method

  • Preheat oven to 170C (fan-forced). Using an apple corer remove the core from each apple. Use a small sharp knife to trim around top and base of apple so the hole is about 2-21/2cm wide.
  • Put the oats, raisins, sugar, walnuts and cinnamon in a small bowl. Mix well. Add the spread and the apple juice. Mix until well combined.
