Baked Apple Jack

All of the warm, comforting sensations of apple pie without any of the dietary complications that come from refined sugar and gluten found in more conventional versions. Cooking the apples on the grill keeps their crunch intact, while the honey enhances their sweetness, and cinnamon evokes the nostalgia of a fresh-baked pie.
