Ingredients

  • 6 apples medium to large, Fuji or Honeycrisp or any sweet variety
  • 6 Tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • ½ cup brown sugar packed
  • ½ cup dried cranberries
  • ½ cup walnuts chopped
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg

Instructions

  • Preheat smoker to 275 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Core the apples, remove only about ¾ of the depth of the apple.
  • Add butter and brown sugar to a medium sized bowl and combine. Fold in the cranberries, chopped walnuts, ground cinnamon, and nutmeg into the butter until blended well.
  • Divide the filling evenly and fill the centers of the apples.
  • Place apples into the smoker. You can arrange them using grill rings to help keep them upright or place them in a cast iron skillet. Smoke until the sides of the apples are soft, 1 to 1 ½ hours depending on the size of the apples.
  • Serve immediately with vanilla ice cream if desired.
