CAMPFIRE APPLE PIE PACKETS In the summer, we get pretty darn good at grilling. For those of you dealing with these soaring temperatures, you know what I’m talking about. So I am always thinking of fun things to make on the grill. And one of my most requested recipes this time of year from y’all are things you can make on the grill or in your slow cooker. I’m adding dried cranberries to this but you can leave those out, or use raisins. My other favorite ingredient to have (if I have them on hand) are some chopped pecans. CAN I MAKE THESE IN THE OVEN? Keep in mind, any recipe that is made on the grill can also be made in the oven. Generally it can be baked at 350F on a baking sheet but you may have to play with the cooking times a bit. I would say about 15- 20 minutes. But this is a simple recipe to enjoy some sweetened fruit with your meal. Great for camp outs and BBQ’s! My husband loves to open his packet and dig in. If you enjoy fried apples then you will love these! I think this goes really well with some PULLED PORK BBQ. Yum! WHAT YOU’LL NEED: apple butter brown sugar ground cinnamon dried cranberries, raisins or chopped nuts HOW TO MAKE CAMPFIRE APPLE PIE PACKETS: Preheat grill (to medium heat). Cut a 12×18-inch sheet of nonstick foil. Place apple slices (on the nonstick side of the foil) along with butter, brown sugar and cinnamon and dried cranberries (if using). If you don’t have nonstick foil, just put a little bit of nonstick spray on the foil to keep the apples from sticking while baking. Wrap packet securely with double-fold seals, allowing for a bit of room for heat expansion.

Place packet on grill and cover and cook for about 15 minutes over medium heat. If using a charcoal grill, make sure your grate is set at least 4-6 inches above the charcoals. Be careful removing from heat. I just use a grill-safe spatula and gently scoop up the packet and put it on a plate. Use caution when opening packets because there will be hot steam as you open them. We serve right in the packets. There will be juices on the bottom of the packet. Just gently stir your apples around a bit in those juices. And eat! So good!

Cook’s Tip: This recipe is for one serving. So it’s easy to take this recipe and make as many as you need for your crowd. This would be fun to set up as a baked apple bar. Set all the ingredients out for your guests and let them top with whatever they like and then grill them to order!

Enjoy!
