Yield makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

4 large Golden Delicious apples, cored
1 cup sugar
8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter

BAKED APPLES WITH CARAMEL SAUCE



Baked Apples with Caramel Sauce image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

Time 45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 medium baking apples, such as Boskop, Braeburn, Fuji, or Gala
4 to 6 dried figs
1/4 cup chopped almonds, toasted
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon heavy cream or creme fraiche
Juice of 1 lemon
Serving suggestion: cinnamon whipped cream or creme fraiche

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Core the apples. Using a paring knife, score a ring around the midriff of each apple, just cutting through the skin to prevent the apples from bursting during baking. Stuff the apples with the figs and almonds. Set on a baking sheet, and bake until puffed up and soft all the way through, about 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, put the sugar in a saucepan with a spoonful of water, and boil to a golden caramel, about 5 minutes, depending on how much water you've added. Do not stir the sugar with a spoon, gently swirl the saucepan over the heat until the desired color. You want a nice rich caramel color, but don't let it get too dark.
  • Serve the baked apples warm from the oven with the sauce poured over and with a generous slump of cinnamon whipped cream or creme fraiche on the side.

Tips:

- Use a variety of apples for a more complex flavor. Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn apples are all good choices. - If you don't have a baking dish, you can use a 9x13 inch metal pan. Just be sure to watch the apples closely so that they don't overcook. - For a sweeter caramel sauce, add an extra 1/4 cup sugar to the recipe. - If you want a more tart caramel sauce, add an extra 1/4 cup lemon juice to the recipe. - Serve the apples warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Conclusion:

Baked caramel apples are a delicious and easy fall dessert. They're perfect for a party or a potluck, and they're sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a sweet and satisfying treat, give baked caramel apples a try.
