Untitled design-6.png

Looking for an easy and seasonal dessert to whip up on your glamping getaway? Apple crisp is one of our favourite autumnal desserts at the springs and is easy to prepare and cook over the BBQ. Whispering Springs is also located in the heart of apple country, so there are lots of nearby orchards to visit and load up on home-grown and delicious Ontario apples (as well as snap that perfect instagram-worthy apple picking picture!).

What you’ll need:

  • Cast iron pan (Woods has a great selection and can be found at Canadian Tire stores nationwide)

  • Gluten-free oats (approx 1 cup)

  • Generous helping of maple syrup

  • 2-3 Ontario apples

  • 1 tablespoon of coconut oil

  • Ground cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves

Instructions:

  1. Either heat up the grill or start stoking your fire to get the flames a blazin’

  2. Lightly oil your cast iron skillet with coconut oil

  3. Cut apples into thin slices

  4. Cover the bottom of the cast iron skillet with sliced apples

  5. Add a layer of oats ontop of the apples

  6. Sprinkle on ground cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves

  7. Drizzle with maple syrup

  8. Let cook on the grill or campfire for approximately 10-15 minutes or until the oats start to turn a golden brown and apples begin to tender

  9. We suggest serving with a generous scoop of Kawartha Dairy vanilla ice cream. Enjoy!
