Next time you’re firing up the grill, think about dessert too! Slice up some apples, brush with melted butter, and throw ‘em on there. Sweetened with a little honey and dusted with cinnamon, grilled apples are a perfect dessert without the wait – or the guilt. And, they’re a tasty option for your gluten-free friends and family!
The best apple for grilling is one with a firm texture, and depending on whether your preference is tart or sweet, go with a Granny Smith (tart), or a Fuji, Piñata®, Pink Lady or Honeycrisp (sweet). These are great options for grilling because their hardy texture will stand up to high heat.
