Equipment

Ingredients

  • 12 apple of your choice
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup granola
  • 1 cup candied cashews
  • 1 cup trail mix
  • ½ cup honey
  • whipped cream or ice cream
  • 1 whole nutmeg
  • ground cinnamon
  • cinnamon stick for garnish

Instructions

  • Core out the apples and cut off the bottom 3/4 inch of the core and stuff back in the bottom
  • Using a spoon or melon baller, carve out the cavity created after coring to make more room for ingredients
  • Form a nest with the Reynolds Wrap Non-Stick Aluminum Foil for the apples too stand on. Simply tear off about 12 inches of foil and then roll up the edges into a nest
  • Fill with your choice of the granola, nuts, and/or trail mix
  • Top with a tablespoon of brown sugar and a tablespoon of honey
  • For granny smith apples, drop an extra tablespoon of brown sugar in the bottom before filling with the other ingredients to counter the tartness
  • Cover each apple with the foil, place the “dull” side facing inward (that’s the non-stick side)
  • Prepare the grill for two zone grilling by placing hot coals on one side of the grill and nothing on the other
  • Target temp inside the grill is 300F
  • Place the apple packets on the side with no heat and bake till soft (these took about 25 minutes)
  • Remove from the heat, carefully remove the foil and slice. Serve half a slice per person or a whole apple
  • Add ice cream or whipped cream
  • Dust with fresh ground nutmeg and cinnamon
  • Add a spring of mint for garmish
