The invention discloses an apple-shaped embedded silicon carbon negative electrode material and a preparation method thereof, wherein the silicon carbon negative electrode material is orderly composedof a core part, a middle part and an external layer from inside to outside; the core part is a micron-level carbon coated silicon carbon material, the middle part is a micron-level graphite material,and the external layer is a submicron-level carbon coated silicon carbon material; the middle part is cylindric and has a rounded edge, the middle part is filled with the core part, and sunken partsare formed at two ends of the middle part; and the external layer covers a surface of the middle part. The preparation method comprises the following steps: obtaining a hollow apple-shaped graphite material by executing spray drying, carbonization and other means on the graphite, then, filling the inside of a hollow structure with a silicon carbon composite material, meanwhile, covering the external surface with the silicon carbon composite material; then, obtaining a target product through high temperature carbonization. With the carbon coated silicon carbon material in the apple-shaped embedded silicon carbon negative electrode material, specific capacity of the product is improved, and the graphite in the middle part not only can improve electrical conductivity of the silicon carbon material, but also can limit volume expansion of the silicon.
