How to Prepare Nut and Date Stuffed Apples [Vegan]

Place the sugar in a small saucepan adding about 5 cups of boiling water. Dissolve over a low heat.
Add in the apples making sure that they fit in nice and snug. The sugar water should cover the apples. If not, make sure you turn them over half way through the cooking process to cook the other side as well.
Simmer the apples on low for 10 minutes.
Preheat oven to 355°F.
Place the stuffing ingredients in a food processor and pulse until a rough but easy to pinch together mixture is formed.
When the apples have finished cooking, stuff them with the filling.
Place them in a baking dish and pour half the syrup over the top.
Put them in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes. Making sure that the filling doesn't burn on the top of the apple.
Serve warm with some of the syrup poured over the apple.
