Ingredients Needed:

• 4 Granny Smith apples, cut in half
• 1/4 cup olive or canola oil
• 1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted cold butter, melted
• 8 tablespoons light brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 cup granola
• 1 pint vanilla ice cream
• 1/2 cup prepared caramel sauce, heated, optional

How To Make Crumble with Vanilla Ice Cream?

1. Heat the grill: Preheat your grill to medium heat.
2. Prepare and grill the apples: Place the halved apples in a medium bowl and toss them with the oil until evenly coated. Arrange the apples on the grill with the cut-side facing down and grill until nicely browned. Flip the apples over to grill the skin side until it also turns golden. Remove the apples from the grill and allow them to cool slightly.
3. Core and slice the apples: Once the apples are cool enough to handle, core them and slice into wedges. Toss the apple wedges with 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, 4 tablespoons of light brown sugar, and 1/2 stick of melted butter in a bowl.
4. Prepare the granola topping: In a separate bowl, mix the remaining melted butter with the remaining cinnamon, light brown sugar, and granola until well-coated.
5. Serve the ice cream: Place a large scoop of vanilla ice cream into each of four serving bowls.
6. Add the apple mixture: Top each scoop of ice cream with the warm apple wedges.
7. Finish with granola and caramel sauce: Sprinkle the prepared granola mixture over the apple wedges and drizzle with heated caramel sauce, if using.

Recipe Tips:

• Pick the Right Apples: Go for Granny Smith apples as they stay firm when grilled and offer a nice tartness to balance the sweet flavors.
• Grill on Medium Heat: Always preheat the grill and keep the heat on medium to avoid burning the apples while getting a nice golden color.
• Add Butter and Spices to Warm Apples: Toss the grilled apples in melted butter, cinnamon, and sugar while they’re still warm so the flavors soak in properly.
• Use Fresh Granola: Make sure to use fresh granola to keep the crumble topping crunchy and avoid stale textures.
• Heat Caramel Sauce Before Serving: Warm the caramel sauce a little before pouring it over the ice cream for a smooth and delicious finish.

How To Store Leftovers?

Let the leftover Apple Crumble cool to room temperature first. Once cooled, place the grilled apples and granola in separate airtight containers. Store the apples in the refrigerator for up to 3 days
