Instructions
1 Preheat slow cooker to high. Core apples about three-quarters of the way through, making a hole about 4cm round the top of each. Use a sharp knife to score around the centre of each apple.
2 Mix spread together with almonds, apricots, cinnamon and sugar and use to fill apple cavities. Place apples in slow cooker, filling side up.
3 Pour juice and water around apples. Add a little more water if liquid does not come to just over halfway up apples. Cover and cook for 2-2 1/2 hours until apples are tender.
Serving suggestion
Serve apples immediately after cooking with low-fat yoghurt, sprinkled with ground cinnamon.
