    🍴🍴🍴🍴🍴🍴🍴🍴🍴
    ✅Ingredients
    Caramel:
    • 1 cup unsalted butter
    • 1 (14 ounce can) sweetened condensed milk
    • 1 cup corn syrup
    • 2 cups brown sugar
    • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
    • ¼ teaspoon salt
    Apples:
    • 8-10 whole apples, Granny Smith, Fuji, or Honey Crisp
    ✅Instructions
    Homemade Caramel:
    1️⃣ Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Once melted, pour in sweetened condensed milk, corn syrup, and brown sugar.
    2️⃣ Use a rubber spatula to stir the mixture constantly over medium heat until it starts to simmer, scraping the sides and bottom regularly.
    3️⃣ Once simmering, continue at a constant simmer, stirring constantly until caramel reaches the softball stage of 235- 240 F, with higher elevations using the lower temperature range, and lower elevations using the upper end of the range.
    4️⃣ At the soft-ball stage, immediately remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract and salt. May leave caramel in this pot or transfer to a small crock pot to help it stay warm as you dip apples.
    Dipping Instructions:
    1️⃣ Clean apples thoroughly. Use warm water and scrub to make sure all excess wax coating is removed.
    2️⃣ Make sure apples are dry and at room temperature.
    3️⃣ Push the skewers into the top of the apple where the stem used to be. Make sure the stick is on tight.
    4️⃣ Gently press the apple into the pot of warm caramel and use a spoon to ladle the caramel around the apple so that the apple is evenly coated.
    5️⃣ Let any excess caramel drip back into the pot and use a spoon to get any excess off the apple. Tip the apple upside down while the caramel continues to set for a few moments.
    6️⃣ Place the caramel dipped apples on a parchment lined cookie sheet.
    Toppings:
    1️⃣ Press in larger toppings while the caramel is still warm.
    2️⃣ If double-dipping the caramel apples into chocolate, let the apple first cool completely.
    3️⃣ Melt chocolate in microwave for 30 seconds at a time, stirring in between each session. Dip, scrape excess, and flip apple upside down until set.
    Recipe Notes:
    Topping Suggestions:
    White Chocolate
    Milk Chocolate
    M&Ms
    Reese's Pieces
    Coconut Flakes
    Sprinkles
    Cinnamon Sugar

    Oreo Crumbles
    Toffee Bits

    Where do you purchase a caramel loaf?

  • @jesuscardona5122
    @jesuscardona5122 Рік тому +1

    You can use maple syrup as a substitute, use maple syrup in the pot, bring it to a boil and add some butter and if you want a splash of milk and let it cook down to your desired consistency.😋

    Tried this for the first time, has this exact recipe. The caramel turned out crunchy hard like a Werther’s Original. Only thing I can think of is the temp of the pot got up to 242 instead of 235. Would that make so much a difference? I didn’t use a crock pot, and I don’t know what temp it was at when I rolled the apples. They were in the freezer 20 min prior to dipping. Could that have caused it to set harder too? It was so disappointing…. very hard to eat without fear of breaking a tooth.

      Yes. It sounds like you didn’t get the temperatures right.

    Not sure what I did wrong but the caramal sauce was super runny and never thickened up enough to dip the apples.
