Ingredients

  • 4 large granny smith apples, or other firm apple
  • 1/4 cup butter, salted
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup old fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans
  • 1 tsp cinnamon

Instructions

  • Mash together the butter with the brown sugar. Add oats, pecans and cinnamon and stir to combine. (You can easily make this filling before your trip for super easy prep at your site!)
  • Remove the inner core of each apple with a knife and/or spoon. Be sure to remove all the seeds and core, but do not puncture the bottom of the apple (we don't want that butter to melt out of the bottom!)
  • Stuff the apples with the filling. Wrap in parchment paper and then aluminum foil, keeping the stuff side of the apple up.
  • Place the apples on top of hot campfire coals. (Be sure to place the apples with the stuffed side up, and do not flip them during cooking.)
  • Cook for approximately 10-15 minutes (cook times will vary) until the apples are tender but not falling apart or mushy.
