Recipe: Apple Cinnamon Bombs

This delicious recipe was passed onto me from a friend years ago. Filled with cinnamon and brown sugar, they are very easy to make and are guaranteed to hit that sweet spot after a big meal!

Step One:

  • Wash and core your apples. Hold onto the cores as you can use a small piece as a plug at the bottom of your apples. 

Step Two:

  • Slice the apples down the side from top to bottom stopping about 3/4 of the way down so that the apple still holds together. Using a small pice of the core, plug the bottom side of the apple so that it can be filled. 

Step Three:

  • Craft some square aluminum foil sheets to wrap the apples with. Give them each a quick shot of cooking spray and then nest each apple into the foil so that it is easy to wrap into a ball once filled.

Step Four:

  • Combine 3 parts brown sugar with 1 part cinnamon to create the inner mixture. Go ahead and fill each apple right up to the top. Once filled give the apple a drizzle of maple syrup or honey, then finish with a small square of butter. 

Step Five:

  • Wrap the apples tightly in the foil and then grill for approx 1 hour or until soft. 

Step Six:

  • Served on their own or with a little ice cream, these tasty treats are sure to impress. Perfect for a cool fall evening!
