Ingredients
Scale
- 2 medium apples (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp work well)
- 1 cup caramel bits or caramel sauce
- 1 tablespoon water (if using caramel bits)
- Toppings of your choice (chopped nuts, sprinkles, mini chocolate chips, or coconut)
Instructions
- Prepare the Apples: Wash and dry the apples thoroughly. Slice them into wedges and remove the core.
- Melt the Caramel: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine caramel bits and water. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth and melted. If using caramel sauce, skip this step.
- Dip the Apple Slices: Dip each apple slice into the melted caramel, ensuring it's coated well. Let the excess drip off.
- Add Toppings: Immediately sprinkle your desired toppings over the caramel-coated apple slices before the caramel sets.
- Cool: Place the caramel apple slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate for about 15-20 minutes to let the caramel harden.
- Serve: Enjoy your caramel apple slices as a fun and tasty fall treat!
Notes
- Use a variety of apples for different flavors and colors.
- For a chocolatey twist, drizzle melted chocolate over the caramel before adding toppings.
