Warm Apple Topping

Warm apples and walnuts are served over ice cream, for this unique and tasty dessert made on the grill.

My husband and I love grilling. We created this unique dessert for my mother, who can't eat most grain products. She was thrilled with the sweet fruit topping spooned over vanilla ice cream.
