Apples stuffed with raisins and lentils - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, but they must be pre-cooked until tender before mixing with other ingredients. Use about 1/2 cup of dried lentils (yields ~1.5 cups cooked).
Dried cranberries, chopped apricots, or dates work well as sweet alternatives. For less sweetness, try capers or olives.
Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 160°C (325°F) for 10 minutes to restore texture.
It's already vegan! Just ensure your curry powder is vegan-friendly (some blends contain fish powder).
Freeze unbaked stuffed apples on a tray, then transfer to a bag for up to 2 months. Bake from frozen at 180°C (350°F) for 25-30 minutes.
Absolutely! Try cumin + paprika, garam masala, or a pinch of cinnamon + cayenne for different flavor profiles.
Choose firm apples like Granny Smith, don’t overfill them, and bake on a flat tray (not deep dish) for even heat distribution.
Stir 100g cooked quinoa or crumbled feta into the filling. For meat, add browned ground lamb or turkey.
