The Best Caramel Apples image

When I was searching for a recipe to make homemade caramel apples for the very first time, a close friend gave me this amazing and fairly easy recipe. My family and friends loved these delicious treats! Sprinkle with nuts or whatever you desire while the caramel is still warm (work quickly, the caramel sets VERY fast).

Time 2h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 large tart apples
8 wooden chopsticks for handles
1 cup butter
2 cups packed brown sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Dip apples in boiling water for a few seconds, then dry with paper towels to remove any wax from the peels. Set apples aside; when completely cool, insert a wooden chopstick firmly into the bottom of each apple for a handle.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Stir butter, brown sugar, corn syrup, and sweetened condensed milk together in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, and reduce heat to medium. Cook until a candy thermometer reads 248 degrees F (120 degrees C), 25 to 30 minutes; stir constantly to prevent burning. A teaspoon of the syrup, dropped in a glass of cold water, should form a firm ball. Remove caramel from heat and stir in vanilla extract.
  • Working quickly, dip each apple into the hot caramel to completely coat the apple and about 1/2 inch of the wooden handle. Sprinkle apples with any desired toppings while still hot. Let caramel apples cool on the parchment paper. Use caution, caramel is very hot.

Categories     dessert

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Salted Caramel:
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup heavy cream
3 tablespoons butter
Sandwich Build:
8 slices white bread, such as Arnold Brick Oven White Sandwich Bread
8 ounces maple bacon, cooked until crispy, crumbled
1 Granny Smith apple, thinly sliced
4 tablespoons butter, plus more if needed

Steps:

  • For the salted caramel: Add 2 tablespoons water, the sugar and salt to a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Stir to combine with a heat-proof spatula until the sugar dissolves. Bring the mixture to a boil and cook until the mixture begins to turn an amber brown color, 8 to 10 minutes. Whisk in the cream, remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the butter, being careful because it will foam up. Adding butter at the end will stop the cooking and keep your caramel soft. Cool.
  • For the sandwich build: Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Spread some salted caramel on one side of 4 pieces of bread. Top with the bacon and apples. Top with the remaining bread and butter both sides of the sandwiches. Place the sandwiches on the grill and cook until nice and toasted, 3 to 4 minutes, flipping halfway through. Add more butter to the pan if needed.
  • Once all sandwiches have been grilled, take a ghost-shaped cookie cutter and punch out ghost shapes from each. Put on a tray and watch masked children devour.

Tips:

  • For a crispier wonton wrapper, brush the edges with egg wash before baking.
  • To make sure the caramel is cooked to the right consistency, use a candy thermometer to measure the temperature. It should reach 240°F (115°C).
  • If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the caramel by dropping a small amount into a bowl of cold water. If it forms a hard ball, it is ready.
  • To make the bacon more crispy, cook it in a single layer in a preheated oven.
  • To make the caramel apple filling, use a sharp knife to cut the apples into thin slices. This will help them cook evenly.
  • If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a ziplock bag to pipe the caramel apple filling into the wonton wrappers.

Conclusion:

Caramel apple and bacon wontons are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They are crispy, sweet, and savory, and they are sure to be a hit with your guests. So next time you are looking for a fun and festive snack, give these wontons a try!
