Description

Baked apples with cinnamon and raisins are a delightful and nutritious dessert, perfect for those following a renal diet. This recipe is designed to be kidney-friendly, focusing on ingredients that are low in potassium and phosphorus. The combination of sweet apples, aromatic cinnamon, and plump raisins creates a comforting treat that can be enjoyed by everyone, including those managing kidney health.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium apples (such as Fuji or Gala)
  • 1/4 cup raisins
  • 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
  • 1/2 cup apple juice or water

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat and Prepare

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • While the oven is heating, wash and core the apples.
  • Ensure you remove the seeds and create a cavity large enough to hold the filling but not so large that the apple falls apart.

Step 2: Mix the Filling

  • In a small bowl, combine the raisins, light brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg.
  • Mix well to ensure the raisins are evenly coated with the sugar and spices.

Step 3: Stuff the Apples

  • Place the cored apples in a baking dish.
  • Evenly distribute the raisin mixture among the apples, stuffing it into the cavities.
  • Top each stuffed apple with a few pieces of the unsalted butter.

Step 4: Bake

  • Pour the apple juice or water into the bottom of the baking dish. This will help to steam the apples and keep them moist during baking.
  • Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
  • After 25 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the filling is bubbly.

Equipment

Notes

  • Choosing Apples: Opt for apples that are firm and hold their shape well when baked, such as Fuji, Gala, or Honeycrisp. Softer varieties may become too mushy.
  • Customizing the Filling: You can add a handful of chopped nuts or swap raisins for dried cranberries if desired, but keep in mind the nutritional adjustments.
  • Serving Suggestions: Serve the baked apples warm, either on their own or with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a more indulgent treat.
  • Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They can be reheated in the microwave or oven before serving.
