Ingredients

Caramel Apple Slices

  • 6 large apples (McIntosh, Macoun, or Granny Smith)
  • 18 food-safe wooden sticks
  • 2 cups creamy peanut butter
  • 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup white chocolate
  • caramel
  • various toppings

Instructions

Caramel Apple Slices

  • Wash the apples and slice into ½ to ¾-inch thick slices.Place them in a large bowl with ¼ cup of lemon juice. Use a spoon to gently toss them around and coat each side with lemon juice. (This will keep the apple slices fresh)
  • Carefully use a sharp knife to make a cut at the bottom of each apple slice. Insert a food safe wooden stick. Use a clean dry paper towel to dry off any excess lemon juice. Set the apple slices on a half sheet pan lined with parchment paper.
  • While you prep the apple slices, use a double boiler to melt the chocolate. Warm the caramel over medium to low heat in a sauce pan.
  • Place the peanut butter in a microwave safe glass measuring cup. Microwave in increments of 30 seconds until the peanut butter is warm and can easily be spread on the apple slices.
  • Spread the peanut butter generously on each apple.
  • Place the apple slices on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Place into the refrigerator for 15 to 30 minutes for the peanut butter to set.
  • Dip the apple slices into melted chocolate. Shake off any excess chocolate. Place the apple slices onto a half sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Add various toppings while the chocolate is still warm. Place the half sheet pan into the refrigerator to set the chocolate and toppings.
  • Drizzle warm caramel and melted white chocolate on apple slices. I like to add white chocolate as just an added decoration. Place it into a disposable pastry bag or plastic baggie with the corner cut off to pipe it nicely onto the apple slices.
  • Place the sheet pan with apples slices back into the refrigerator for 1-2 hours to properly set the chocolate. Once the chocolate is set you can place apples into food-safe baggies if desired. Or enjoy immediately.
  • They will last in the fridge for about 2-3 days if you fully cover the apple in chocolate.
