Introduction: Grilled Apple Crisp

About: I enjoy crafting, photography, gardening and cooking. I am an avid cooking contester and I have won several national contests.

My husband and I love the taste of grilled food and I cook on our gas grill all of the time. For this Instructable, I wanted to try grilling something I had never grilled before. I thought it would be fun to make some kind of dessert! I had some Gala apples in the refrigerator and then it came to me! I could bake some apple crisp on the grill! Here is how I made it.

Step 1: Supplies Needed

sharp knife

cutting board

small bowl

medium-size bowl

regular spoon

1 12-inch grilling pan with holes with a removable handle

large spoon

1 12" x 12" sheet of aluminum foil

Step 2: Ingredients

4 apples, your choice

1/4 cup sugar

2 teaspoons cinnamon

1 stick butter, softened

1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup quick oats

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

Step 3: Start Peeling

Preheat grill to medium heat.

Using a peeler, peel one of the apples. I chose to use gala apples but any variety would work.

Step 4: Start Cutting

Cut the apple in half, then in quarters. Core each quarter.

Step 5: Cut the Quarters

Cut each quarter into 3 to 4 slices.

Step 6: Repeat

Cut the remaining 3 apples in the same manner.

Place all of the apples in the grill pan.

Step 7: Sugar and Cinnamon

In a small bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon.

Step 8: Add to the Apples

Sprinkle the apples with the cinnamon sugar mixture.

Stir gently.

Step 9: Let's Grill!

Place pan with the coated apples on the grill.

Step 10: Use the Foil

Cover the pan with foil. Cook for 5 minutes.

Step 11: Make the Topping

Using a spoon, in a medium bowl combine the sugar, cinnamon, butter, brown sugar, flour, quick oats and baking powder.

Step 12: Stir

Remove the foil and stir the apples.

Step 13: Add the Topping

Evenly sprinkle oatmeal mixture on top of the apple mixture. Place over indirect heat to avoid burning the apples. The cooking time can vary because everyone's grill is different. Mine took about 25 minutes over indirect heat.

Step 14: Remove From Grill

When the topping looks fully cooked, remove the grill pan from the grill using the handle.

Step 15: Ready to Serve!

My husband and I really enjoyed the texture of the apples and the crispy topping. If you try making it, I'm sure you and your family will enjoy it too!!!
