* Apples should be peeled if desired, but in all cases, cored. Place the apples in a 9-inch square baking pan. In a bowl combine the cereal, dates, almonds, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice and 3 tb of honey. Spoon equal amounts of the filling into each apple packing it lightly. Stir together the melted butter, the remaining 3 tb of honey, and apple juice. Pour over the apples. Cover and bake in a 350 degree oven for 30 minutes. Uncover and continue to bake, basting often with the pan juices until tender when pierced, about 35 more minutes. Serve warm or cooled.
