A delicious and easy dessert made with sliced apples, warm spices, and butter, all wrapped in foil and cooked over an open fire or grill.

  • Total Time: PT35M
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

4 large Granny Smith or Honeycrisp apples, thinly sliced
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided into 4 pats
1/2 cup granola (optional, for crunch)
Pinch of salt

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your grill to medium heat or prepare a bed of hot coals in your campfire.
Step 2: Cut four 12x12 inch squares of heavy-duty aluminum foil.
Step 3: In a medium bowl, combine the sliced apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt. Toss well to coat.
Step 4: Divide the apple mixture evenly among the four foil squares, placing the apples in the center.
Step 5: Place one pat of butter (1 tablespoon) on top of the apples in each packet. If using granola, sprinkle it on now.
Step 6: Fold the sides of the foil over the apples and seal tightly by crimping the edges to prevent steam from escaping.
Step 7: Place the packets on the grill or over the hot coals. Cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the apples are tender when pierced with a fork (carefully open a corner to check).
Step 8: Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before serving directly from the foil.

Notes

Always use heavy-duty foil to prevent leaking. If using a home oven, bake at 400°F (200°C) for about 20 minutes.
