These Campfire Apple Pie Packets are so simple to make with an apple, butter, cinnamon and brown sugar all baked up in foil! Easy and yummy!
CAMPFIRE APPLE PIE PACKETS
TIPS FOR MAKING APPLE PIE PACKETS:
- I'm adding dried cranberries to this but you can leave those out, or use raisins. My other favorite ingredient to have (if I have them on hand) are some chopped pecans.
- This recipe is for one serving. So it's easy to take this recipe and make as many as you need for your crowd.
- This would be fun to set up as a baked apple bar. Set all the ingredients out for your guests and let them top with whatever they like and then grill them to order!
- I am making thee like fried apples so I keep the peel on but you can obviously peel your apples if you don't enjoy it that way.

CAMPFIRE APPLE PIE PACKETS
Ingredients
- 1 apple, cored and sliced
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 ½ tbsp brown sugar
- ¼ tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tbsp dried cranberries or raisins, optional
- 1 tbsp chopped pecans, optional
Instructions
- Preheat grill (to medium heat). Cut a 12 x 18-inch sheet of nonstick foil.
- Place apple slices on foil along with butter, brown sugar and cinnamon and dried cranberries.
- Wrap packet securely with double-fold seals, allowing for a bit of room for heat expansion.
- Place packet on grill; cover and cook for about 15 minutes over medium heat.
- Be careful when removing from the grill it will be very hot! Also, use caution when opening packets because there will be hot steam as you open them.
- We serve right in the packets. There will be juices on the bottom of the packet so gently stir the apples before taking a bite.

What a great idea! So simple and delicious!
Just a few ingredients that pack a ton of flavor. Hope you like this one!
Perfect timing! We are heading out camping in a few hours, and I will be packing a few extra apples now! Thanks for sharing.
Sounds like so much fun!!
I bet you could do these foil packets in a crock pot too!
I bet you could! Anything to avoid turning on the oven, right? 🙂
I would like to cook mine in the oven. How long would I need to cook them? Thank you!

Everyone loved these! I took your idea and had everyone make their own - adding it what they wanted and we made peach ones too! Huge hit! Thank you!
I'm in love that you made this on the grill, I have to try this!
Thank you! We are all about the grill and the crock pot during the summer. Sometimes I gotta turn the oven on but I try to avoid it as much as possible to keep from heating up the house! 🙂
These were so easy and yummy!
So happy you had a chance t try it and liked it!
Sounds delicous. I'd like to make mine in the oven. How long and what temp?
Well, I can honestly say I have never made them in the oven so you'll have to play it by ear. I would say 350F for about the same amount of time (15 min.). Just make sure you put them on a baking sheet. Give them a check after 15 minutes and see if they are tender. If not, add on more time as necessary. 🙂
Love this recipe! Next time I might take the peels off or cut the apples in bite size pieces. It's like apple pie minus the crust.
And a healthier treat to boot! GREAT idea...I love Pink Lady apples too. =)
I am always looking for something else to have as dessert around a campfire. It's on tap for this weekend! *fingers crossed*
can I make this on a oven?
could this be done in the oven,say300 for 10/15 minutes? I am too old to grill. But love this idea.
Of course you can make these in the oven 🙂
I wonder if you put some oatmeal on top, cut with a little butter if it would be like a little mini apple crisp?
This is SO good! Baked in the oven at 375 degrees until done. Thanks.
thank you. exactly what i was looking for. i am going to make a big batch on my trip and eat the rest with breakfast
Super easy & delicious recipe that I just made on the grill. I used pink lady apples, plant butter, and made it without the cranberries. Everyone loved them! I may try adding a little less sugar or a different apple type next time since they were very sweet and see how it goes. Thank you for the recipe!
Thanks so very much Sydney!
