The inner wall extends axially along the axis to a distal inner wall end that is axially recessed within the swirler from the distal outer wall end. The outer passage is formed by and radially between the inner wall and the outer wall. The inner passage is formed by and radially within the inner wall. The fuel nozzle projects into the inner passage. The fuel nozzle is configured with a plurality of orifices axially aligned with the inner wall and arranged circumferentially about the axis.
