With a small knife cut out the apple stalk and create an opening in the top of the apple about 4-5cm dia then using a small teaspoon scoop out the core and create a cavity in the apple leaving the base intact. Put some of the apple scooping aside and dice finely

Mix the rest of the ingredients in a bowl until all well combined

Scoop into the hollow of each apple and compact nicely inside the lightly score the apple skin in vertical cuts to prevent it from bursting

Place each apple into a small ovenproof dish (ramekin ideally) and sprinkle half of the set-aside diced up apple around the apple inside the dish then sprinkle some brown sugar and oats over the top of each apple and let it drop into the dish around it to mix with the diced apple

Place in an oven and cook for 40-50mins approx subject to size of apple until the apple has cooked through.

Remove from oven (180°C/365F) and let it cool until only warm to touch then serve with cream or ice cream
