Step-By-Step Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Core the apples, making sure to leave the bottoms intact. Cut off the top of each apple, about 1/4 inch from the top.
- In a medium bowl, combine 2 tablespoons lime juice and 2 cups water. Soak the apples in the water for about 5 minutes to prevent browning.
- In another bowl, add almond butter, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla extract, remaining lime juice, and pumpkin spice. Mix together.
- Remove apples from water and pat dry. Stuff each apple with 1 tablespoon almond butter mixture. Once all apples are stuffed, place them in a deep baking dish. Add about 1/2 inch water to the baking dish, and make sure apples are upright in the water. (The water keeps the apples from drying out.) Bake for 1 hour. While the apples bake, keep an eye on the water level; add more water if needed.
- Once apples are fork tender, remove from baking dish and serve.
