Use a sharp paring knife to carefully remove the top of the apple core. Then use a spoon to scoop out the remaining apple core, be careful not to break through the bottom of the apple.

Add the spices, oats and sugar to a small bowl and stir together.

Place the apple into a baking dish and fill with the oat mix. Top each apple with a small scoop of vegan butter and fill the dish with the ¼ cup of hot water.

Bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for about one hour, until apples are soft to the touch, enjoy!
