Tips:
- Choose the right apples. Firm, tart apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp hold their shape well when cooked and provide a nice contrast to the sweet caramel.
- Use a heavy-bottomed pot. This will help prevent the caramel from burning.
- Cook the caramel slowly. Stirring constantly, cook the caramel over medium heat until it reaches the desired color and thickness.
- Don't overcrowd the pot. Cook the apples in batches if necessary to prevent them from sticking together.
- Serve the apples warm. Spiced caramel apples are best enjoyed warm, but they can also be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week.
