Apple Sundaes with Cider Caramel Sauce image

The caramel apple takes a sophisticated turn in this dessert. Baked with butter, sugar, ginger, and cinnamon, the fruit goes soft and spicy before you finish it with a rich caramel sauce that's mostly made in the oven, plus vanilla ice cream and crushed store-bought amaretto cookies.

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup dark-brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
1 tablespoon unfiltered apple-cider vinegar
4 to 5 firm red baking apples, such as Empire or Honeycrisp (2 pounds total)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger (from a peeled 1-inch piece)
Pinch of kosher salt
1 tablespoon heavy cream
Vanilla ice cream and crushed amaretto cookies, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Stir together both sugars, butter, and vinegar until well combined. Spread mixture evenly in the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
  • Peel and core apples, then slice into 3/4-inch-thick rounds. Toss with cinnamon, ginger, and salt in a bowl. Place on top of sugar mixture in a single layer, overlapping slightly if needed. Cover with parchment-lined foil and bake until just beginning to soften and bubble, 20 to 25 minutes. Spoon sauce over apples, and increase heat to 450 degrees. Continue to bake, uncovered, until sauce thickens and apples are soft and brown, about 15 minutes more.
  • Divide apples evenly among 4 bowls. Whisk cream into liquid in baking dish to make a caramel sauce. Transfer to a bowl; let cool until thickened slightly, about 10 minutes. Top apples with ice cream, caramel sauce, and cookies; serve.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 Granny Smith apples, peeled and cored, each cut into 12 wedges
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
3 ounces (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter
2 1/4 cups sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons Calvados
1 1/2 cup heavy cream, divided
Cinnamon Ice Cream
Pecan-Oat Crumble

Steps:

  • Make the apples: Toss apples with lemon juice in a large bowl, and let stand. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add sugar, and stir until sugar dissolves and mixture is dark amber, about 15 minutes.
  • Stir in apples, their juices, and the salt. Reduce heat to medium-low, and cook, stirring occasionally, until apples are softened, about 10 minutes. Stir in Calvados and 1/2 cup cream. Transfer apple mixture to a bowl.
  • Prepare an ice-water bath. Set the bowl in the bath, and let apple mixture cool, stirring occasionally, until mixture is cold and sauce has thickened, about 20 minutes. Use immediately (or refrigerate overnight).
  • To assemble: Whisk remaining 1 cup cream to medium peaks. For each serving, place 2 caramelized apple wedges in a sundae glass. Top with a scoop of cinnamon ice cream, 2 caramelized apple wedges, and some pecan-oat crumble. Repeat ice cream, apple, and crumble layers. Top with whipped cream.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe apples: This will ensure the best flavor for your sundaes.
  • Peel and core the apples before cooking: This will make them easier to eat and will also help to prevent the skins from toughening up.
  • Cook the apples until they are tender but still hold their shape: You don't want them to become mushy.
  • Use a variety of toppings: This will add flavor and visual appeal to your sundaes. Some popular toppings include whipped cream, ice cream, caramel sauce, and chopped nuts.
  • Serve the sundaes immediately: This is when they are at their best.

Conclusion:

Hot apple sundaes are a delicious and easy dessert that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for a special occasion or a simple weeknight treat. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and satisfying dessert that everyone will love.
