Sausage Stuffed Apples

Added on May 18th, 2012 by our friend from http://tgipaleo.com

Cooking Steps

Carefully cut out the core of the apples and create a nice little cavity for the stuffing. Leave at least 1/2″ of flesh all around.

Grate the onion, carrot, and celery in a food processor, or at least dice them all really fine. Set aside.

Heat the oil over medium-high heat and brown the sausage. Remove to a mixing bowl, reserving the grease in the pan. Add the veggies to the drippings and cook for 3-4 minutes. Add veggies to ground sausage along with the pecans, dates, pepper, egg, and cinnamon.

Fill the apples with the sausage stuffing and arrange in a baking dish. Sprinkle the tops with a little more cinnamon if desired. Bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes, until heated through.

  1. This was delicious! I added 2 large mushrooms with the celery and carrots. Kitchen tip–slice off the very top of the apple and then use a small cookie/ice cream scoop to hollow out the middle of the apple. I added about 1/4 cup of the mix to each apple.
