Festive Baked Apples with your favourite Yoghurt

Serves:
4
Servings 4
Ingredients
- 4 small apples 1 per person
- 150 g Christmassy mincemeat 1-2 tbsp per apple
- 2 tbsp coconut oil or butter
- 1-2 tbsp natural Greek yoghurt or coconut yoghurt per person
Method
- Preheat oven to 150c
- Sit each apple on a chopping board and push the apple corer into the centre of each one, removing core.
- Score around the circumference of each apple with a small sharp. Place in a shallow baking dish side by side. Using your fingers push 1-2 spoonful’s Christmassy mincemeat into the core of each apple, using up all the mixture between them.
- Lightly coat apples with coconut oil or butter
- Bake in oven for 25 - 40 minutes, until apples are tender and busting every so slightly out of their skins. (this will depend on the size and type of apple)
- Remove from oven, serve individually with a good dollop of yoghurt.
