PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  Wash the apple and use a corer or small spoon to remove the seeds and core, leaving the bottom half-inch of the apple intact to create a bowl shape.

  Place the apple in a small oven-safe baking dish and rub the interior cavity with the ghee.

• 4

  In a small bowl, stir together the unsweetened applesauce with 0.5 tsp of the cinnamon and the ground nutmeg.

• 5

  Spoon the spiced applesauce mixture into the center of the apple.

• 6

  Bake for 30 to 35 minutes until the apple is tender when pierced with a fork and the sauce is bubbling.

• 7

  While the apple bakes, whisk together the Greek yogurt, vanilla protein powder, vanilla extract, and the remaining 0.5 tsp of cinnamon in a bowl until completely smooth.

• 8

  Remove the apple from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes.

• 9

  Serve the warm baked apple topped with the protein yogurt sauce and a sprinkle of slivered almonds.
