Nothing like a warm and tasty dessert while you are camping… Try these delicious apple pie packets!
Ingredients:
1 apple, cored and sliced
1 Tablespoon salted butter
1½ Tablespoons brown sugar
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 Tablespoon dried cranberries or raisins, optional
1 Tablespoon chopped pecans, optional
Instructions:
Preheat grill (to medium heat). Cut a 12 x 18-inch sheet of nonstick foil. Place apple slices on foil along with butter, brown sugar and cinnamon and dried cranberries or raisins. Wrap packet securely with double-fold seals, allowing for a bit of room for heat expansion. Place packet on grill; cover and cook for about 15 minutes over medium heat. Optionally, place on a grate over a campfire for 15-20 minutes, when it smells like pie… it should be ready.. Check the apples to see if they are tender enough for your liking, only open one packet to check, as they cook with steam! If they are done, remove them all. If not, you should be able to gauge how much longer they will need, by the tenderness of the packet you opened, probably about 5-10 more minutes.
Be careful when removing from the grill it will be very hot! Also, 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, so gently stir the apples before taking a bite.
