Cook Time

This is the classic New England tradition of apple pie and cheddar but made easier and even tastier cooked over a campfire. Using two small cast iron skillets creates two "individual" tarts, but a larger skillet will work as well. If using a larger skillet you may need to double the ingredients to fill the pan.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. PREPARE and heat an outdoor grill or campfire to a low heat. If using a larger skillet you may need to double the recipe ingredients.

  2. RUB half of the butter on the inside of the skillet(s).

  3. MIX the diced apples with the shredded cheddar in a small bowl.

  4. CUT the sliced apples in half so that you can stand them up around the inside of the skillet and layer on the bottom of the skillet. If you need, you can add the diced apples and cheddar to help them stand up.

  5. ADD the remainder of the apples and cheddar to round off the “filling”.

  6. DRIZZLE with a little maple syrup then top with the granola and a little more syrup. Top with other half of the butter, crumbled on top of the granola.

  7. PLACE the skillet on the grill or over a campfire and let cook until the apples start to soften and the top starts to get a little brown, about 10 minutes. Carefully remove from the heat and enjoy right from the pan.
