Grilled Apple Crisp in foil packet

Campfire Apple Crisp

Has the weather started getting cool where you live? I’m loving these warm days and we are just starting to get cooler evenings. This time of year is magical and I love the fall! Especially when it means I get to indulge in Campfire Apple Crisp Foil Packets! There’s nothing better than a crisp fall night, foil packets on the campfire and enjoying the crisp autumn air.

I love taking the kids to the apple orchard and they get a kick out of it too! Sipping some apple cider, watching the kids bob for apples, crunching on bright crisp apples – seriously does life get any better?

When you make your trip to the apple orchard (or market or stand!)  I want you to make this recipe. Something about grilling a campfire apple crisp that makes fall complete. The tender spiced apples topped with oatmeal streusel only gets better when you finish it off with a dollop of ice-cream, mmmm!

Grilled Apple Crisp

Pretty sure I’ve talked you into this now right? Seriously, grilled apple crisp is so good!

What apples are best for baking?

The best apples for baking are going to be your hard, crispy, tart apples!

  • Granny Smith
  • Braeburn
  • Cortland
  • Honeycrisp
  • MacIntosh

These are the top five the “experts” recommend, but here’s what I’m going to tell you… use your favorite apples. The crunchy, crisp apples will stand up better to the heat of the grill. They won’t turn into applesauce like the softer apples can.

Having said that, if all you have handy is a soft apple the worst thing that will happen is after it’s baked it will be runnier than pictured here. That’s it! It’s not a catastrophe since Grilled Apple Crisp are served in foil packets anyway. See? No stress!

    It was good but way too sweet for us. I would use about half the sugar

    I accidentally got regular oats instead of quick oats. Anyone else make it like this. Modifications/suggestions??

    I hate to cook but want to keep my family healthy. When we decided to go camping and my husband mentioned roasting marshmallows I panicked and googled to try to find something healthier that I could do without it being a huge process. This was my answer. I already had the ingredients on hand (Envy apples and I didn’t have brown sugar but Rapadura sugar worked for me) and it was really easy to throw together. I prepped it before we left and double wrapped it in foil. We cooked it in the coals of our fire for about 15 minutes and then flipped them and cooked them another 5 or so minutes. My daughter was worried because she doesn’t like baked apples, but was willing to give it a try. Even she loved it! I think we have a new campfire dessert tradition in the making. In the future I might see if I can cut down the sugar a tiny bit cause I always try to do that if I can, but it’s great as is. Thank you for a great alternative to marshmallows!
