This is a wonderful fruit topping for ice cream or over a short cake. The best part is, you don’t have to heat up the house to enjoy it!

Serves 6

Special equipment: Heavy duty foil, grill

Ingredients:

3 large apples (any variety), cored, sliced ½ inch thick

1 T vegetable oil

3 T brown sugar

1 tsp cinnamon

¼ tsp nutmeg

3 short cakes, split (optional)

Method:

Combine oil, brown sugar and spices in a large zip top plastic bag. Add apples and toss well to coat. Let sit at room temperature for up to 1 hour.

Using heavy duty foil, make a double “bag”. Layer two sheets of foil about 2 feet long (usually 18 inches wide). Fold the double layer in half and roll two open sides tightly to close.

Pour apple mixture into foil bag and seal the third side (the fourth side will be the fold).

Grill over medium heat for 20-30 minutes. Flipping the bag over once during cooking.

Remove from grill and let rest for 5-10 minutes before opening bag.

Pour apples and sauce into a serving bowl and enjoy over short cake or ice cream.

Note: Grill temperatures vary so cooking time will vary as well. To check doneness, open on end of foil bag carefully and stick a fork in one apple. If the apple is tender, the fruit is done. If not, reseal and continue to grill.
