Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Medium-sized apples
- 0.5 cups Rolled oats
- 3 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 4 teaspoons Butter
- 2 tablespoons Raisins
- 2 tablespoons Chopped nuts (optional)
- 4 sheets Aluminum foil
Instructions
Prepare your campfire so it's burning steadily and has hot embers.
Wash the apples thoroughly and use a sharp knife to cut out the cores, making sure to leave the bottoms intact to create a small cavity in each apple.
In a small bowl, mix together the rolled oats, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, raisins, and chopped nuts (if using).
Fill each apple cavity with the oat mixture, packing it tightly.
Top each filled apple with 1 teaspoon of butter.
Wrap each apple tightly in a sheet of aluminum foil, ensuring the foil is fully sealed to trap the heat and juices.
Place the foil-wrapped apples on the hot embers of the campfire and let them cook for about 18-20 minutes, turning occasionally using tongs to ensure even cooking.
Carefully remove the apples from the fire using tongs and let them cool slightly in the foil before opening.
Unwrap the apples and serve warm—straight from the foil for a rustic camping vibe or in bowls if preferred.
