Apple pie baked in an apple

Tjcoley

Carved out a few Granny Smith apples

Added the cut up apple, plus some extra, seasoned with sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon

Added a crust (Store bought pie crust)

On the Egg, indirect, 400 degree dome, a little bit of water in the pan for about 45 minutes

Waiting for ice cream

I still need to try making these pies! Looks great!

Wow...those look exceptional. I'd imagine they're a lil more healthy since its lacking the bottom crust. How'd they come out?

Alright! I can't read this without a bookmark! Saving this one for the Apple Fest party!

Haven't eaten them yet - Cooling for tonights dessert.  I put them on early due to upcoming thunderstorms.  They smell wonderful/

How did you carve out the apples? That looks awsome. Mmmm...

Tjcoley

To carve out the apples, I just sliced off the top, then used a paring knife to cut around the inside, leaving about 1/4 inch of apple.  Used a teaspoon to scoop and finish carving out.  A melon baller may work better because it is sharper than a spoon, but I couldn't find it in the drawer.

Wow, these look great and will definitely get added to a future cook.

@Tjcoley thanks again for sharing this i showed my wife and she went right out to get the stuff she's in the middles of them now and egg is coming to temp can't wait to taste them 

Tjcoley

Lookin good bigphil.  Hope you enjoy them.

bigphil

Done and i've been told i have to eat dinner first before dessert stupid rules in this house bad influence on the kids or something like that .

I need to go to the store as soon as the kids go to bed! The Hell with late night butts and brisket. Let's cook some Apple pies!

Tjcoley

They were great with a little vanilla ice cream.  The pie filling turned out perfect, the apple itself could have gone 5 more minutes on the Egg.  Everyone still ate all of it and no one complained.  A big hit.

bigphil

@Tjcoley absolutely a huge hit we made 10 and between my family and the kids friends they are all gone . you mentioned ice cream thats what they did

When I made mine, I just used enough to cover the bottom of the pan. Maybe an 1/8-1/4 inch.
