Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F. In a bowl, combine 1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts, 1/3 cup finely chopped red grapes, 3 tbsp honey, 1 tsp ground cinnamon, and 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice to form the charoset filling.
  2. Step 2: Core 4 large apples, leaving the bottoms intact to hold filling. Spoon the charoset mixture evenly into the cavities of the apples.
  3. Step 3: Place stuffed apples upright in a baking dish and pour 1/2 cup water into the bottom of the dish to keep apples moist during baking.
  4. Step 4: Bake apples for 40-45 minutes until tender but not mushy, basting occasionally with pan juices to keep moist and glossy.
  5. Step 5: Remove from oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm as a fragrant, sweet Passover dessert.
