Prep Time

10-15 minutes

Cook Time

45-55 minutes

Ingredients

8 apples, honeycrisp or Granny smith work best
1 1/2 cup rolled oats
1 1/2 cup brown sugar
10 tablespoon butter, very soft or melted
3 teaspoon ground cinnamon
0.5 teaspoon salt

 

Instructions

1. Make the filling: While the charcoal is getting ready, mix oats, brown sugar, softened butter, and salt in a small bowl.
2. Carve the apples: Use a small spoon to carve out the middle of the apples, starting from the top and working your way down to the core. Be sure to not carve through the bottom or else the filling will spill throughout the dutch oven.
   
3. Fill the apples: Pack the oats and sugar mixture into the carved apples.
4. Bake the apples in a Dutch oven: Place the filled apples upright in the Dutch oven over hot charcoals, cover with lid and hot charcoal on top.
5. Bake for 45-55 minutes at 350 degrees: Until the apples are soft and the filling is crispy.
6. Serve topped with whipped cream and enjoy!
