Time 1h20m

Yield 9 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 cups reduced-fat Bisquick baking mix
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup milk
2 medium cooking apples, peeled and sliced
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (or my sweet spice blend Sweet Spice Blend)
1 cup boiling water
sweetened whipped cream (optional) or ice cream (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350ºF.

  • Top with apples; sprinkle with lemon juice.

  • (DO NOT STIR) Bake 50 to 60 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use a tart apple variety like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp.
  • If you don't have a baking sheet, you can use a 9x13 inch baking dish. Just be sure to adjust the baking time accordingly.
  • Be careful not to overcook the caramel sauce. If it gets too dark, it will become bitter.
  • Allow the caramel apple squares to cool completely before cutting and serving. This will help them hold their shape.
  • Store the caramel apple squares in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Caramel apple squares are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They're made with a simple shortbread crust, a layer of sweet and tart apples, and a drizzle of rich caramel sauce. These squares are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them!
