Fill each apple with the cinnamon-granola mixture, making sure the mixture gets into the apple core that you just scooped out.
Place the stuffed apples in a deep baking dish, topping each apple with any of the remaining cinnamon-granola mixture, then drizzle the remaining melted coconut oil on top of each apple, along with an extra sprinkle of cinnamon.
