Ingredients
- 2 large apples, sliced into thin rounds or wedges
- 1 cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- Prepare the Apples: Wash and dry the apples thoroughly. Slice them into thin, even rounds or wedges to ensure easy dipping and a good balance of apple to caramel.
- Heat the Caramel Sauce: Warm the caramel sauce slightly in a microwave-safe bowl or on the stovetop over low heat to make it easier to dip the apple slices.
- Dip the Apple Slices: Holding each apple slice, dip it into the warm caramel sauce, coating it generously. Allow any excess caramel to drip off.
- Set and Serve: Place the caramel-coated apple slices on a parchment-lined tray or plate to cool and set for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy immediately for best texture.
Notes
- Use tart apples like Granny Smith for a nice balance to the sweetness of caramel.
- For an extra treat, sprinkle the caramel-coated slices with chopped nuts or sea salt before it sets.
- Serve immediately to avoid apples browning; dipping in lemon water before slicing can help prevent oxidation.
