This simple recipe takes the headache out of holiday baking. There are only three ingredients, and no basting or constant checking is required.
Ingredients
- 1 (12 pound) whole turkey – thawed, neck and giblets removed
- ¼ cup vegetable oil, or as needed
- 5 apples, cored and quartered
- 5 pounds whole unpeeled apples
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Step 2
If necessary, unbind legs of turkey. Rinse and dry turkey with paper towels. Place turkey into a roasting pan with a lid, and rub the oil all over the turkey, inside and out. Stuff the body and neck cavities of the turkey with the apple quarters; arrange whole apples around the turkey in the roasting pan. Scatter any extra apple quarters into the pan. Cover the roasting pan.
Step 3
Roast in the preheated oven until the skin is browned and the meat is beginning to separate from the legs, 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Remove lid in last 20 minutes of roasting if needed to brown skin. Use pan drippings for gravy, if desired.
Cook’s Notes
Be sure not to use too large of a roasting pan. If using an aluminum (throw-away) roasting pan, tent the aluminum foil placed over the turkey so that it does not touch the turkey; however, it is necessary to ensure that the aluminum foil is as "sealed" as possible.
