Gourmet Caramel Apple Slices Recipe
This Gourmet Caramel Apple Slices Recipe is a sweet, fresh and fun dessert.
Ingredients
- Fresh apples – 3 large
- Lemon juice – 1 tablespoon
- Caramel candies – 1 cup
- Heavy cream or milk – 2 tablespoons
- White chocolate chips – ½ cup
- Dark chocolate chips – ½ cup
- Chopped nuts – ½ cup
- Sprinkles – ¼ cup
- Sea salt – ¼ teaspoon
Instructions
Wash the Apples
- Wash apples under clean water. Dry them well. This helps caramel stick better to the apple slices.
Slice the Apples
- Cut apples into even slices. Remove seeds carefully. Keep slices thick so they do not break.
Add Lemon Juice
- Place apple slices in a bowl. Drizzle lemon juice over them. Toss gently to prevent browning.
Prepare the Tray
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange apple slices flat. Leave space between slices.
Melt the Caramel
- Add caramel candies and cream to a saucepan. Heat on low. Stir until smooth and creamy.
Dip or Spoon Caramel
- Spoon warm caramel over each apple slice. Spread gently to cover the top surface evenly.
Add Chocolate Drizzle
- Melt white and dark chocolate separately. Drizzle over caramel-covered apple slices using a spoon.
Add Toppings
- Sprinkle nuts, sprinkles and sea salt on top. Do this while caramel is still warm.
Chill the Slices
- Place the tray in refrigerator. Chill for ten minutes. This helps caramel and chocolate set well.
Serve and Enjoy
- Remove slices from fridge. Serve fresh and enjoy the sweet and crunchy flavors together.
Notes
- Use Granny Smith apples for tart flavor.
- Try peanut butter drizzle for extra richness.
- Use coconut flakes for tropical taste.
- Add crushed cookies for crunch.
- Keep caramel warm but not hot.
- Always dry apples before adding caramel.
