Make it Now
  1. Oven: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place foil packets onto a baking sheet. Then place into preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes or until apples are cooked through and crumb topping is golden brown. Carefully open foil packets, top with caramel sauce drizzle, ice cream or cool whip if desired and serve.
  2. Grill: Grill foil packets directly onto the grill for 12-15 minutes or until apples are cooked through and crumb topping is golden brown. Carefully open foil packets, top with ice cream or cool whip if desired and serve.
  3. Campfire: Your campfire should have been going for a while so that you have a nice 1-2 inch layer of hot & ready white coals. Place your foil packets on a grill 2 inches above the coals and cook for 12-15 minutes or until apples are cooked through and crumb topping is golden brown.
  4. Carefully open foil packets, top with ice cream or cool whip if desired and serve.
Make it a Freezer Meal

Thaw and Cook
  1. Place bag in refrigerator for at least 12 hours or up to 24 hours to thaw. Then bake as directed in the make it now instructions above.

Notes

  • Which foil is best? There is regular aluminum foil, heavy duty foil and even non-stick foils. For this dessert I would recommend using heavy duty foil so you can hold all of the goodness in. But can you make them in regular foil? Yes! Just double up on your foil for this dessert!
  • Baking this in the oven? No problem! Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place foil packets onto a baking sheet. Then place into preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes or until apples are cooked through and crumb topping is golden brown. Carefully open foil packets, top with caramel sauce drizzle, ice cream or cool whip if desired and serve.
