# Step-by-Step Guide:
01 -
Wash, core, and slice each apple into 8 wedges approximately ¼ inch thick, leaving the skin intact for texture and color.

Combine olive oil or melted butter with ground cinnamon and lightly brush the mixture on both sides of the apple slices.
03 -
Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Grill apple slices for 2 to 3 minutes on each side until tender with visible grill marks. Remove and let cool slightly.
04 -
Envelop each grilled apple slice with half or a full turkey slice, securing with toothpicks as necessary to hold in place.

Warm honey gently and drizzle evenly over the turkey-wrapped apple slices to finish.

Optionally garnish with fresh rosemary or thyme. Serve warm or at room temperature as an appetizer.
# Handy Tips:
01 -
Select firm apples such as Honeycrisp or Fuji for optimal texture when grilling.
02 -
Use thinly sliced turkey for easier wrapping and elegant presentation.
03 -
Avoid overcooking the apples; they should remain tender but firm, not mushy.
04 -
Warm honey before drizzling to achieve a glossy, smooth finish.
05 -
This dish can be prepared ahead by grilling and wrapping; drizzle honey just before serving.
