There is something so special about the smell of crisp apples when the weather starts to cool down. My family loves gathering around a caramel apple bar because it lets everyone pick exactly what they want on their apple slices or whole fruit.

It is such a simple way to feed a crowd for a party or just have a cozy weekend activity at home. My best advice is to slice your apples right before you are ready to eat so they stay nice and crunchy.

๐Ÿงบ Ingredients

  • 6 large crisp apples like Honeycrisp or Granny Smith
  • 1 cup creamy caramel sauce
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips, melted
  • 1/2 cup chopped peanuts
  • 1/2 cup mini marshmallows
  • 1/2 cup sprinkles
  • 1/2 cup shredded coconut
  • Wooden skewers or sticks

๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐ŸณInstructions

  1. 1

    Wash the apples thoroughly and dry them well.

  2. 2

    Slice the apples into thick wedges or leave them whole if you prefer traditional caramel apples.

  3. 3

    Insert a wooden stick into the bottom of each apple wedge or whole apple.

  4. 4

    Set out bowls for the caramel sauce, melted chocolate, and all your favorite toppings.

  5. 5

    Dip each apple into the warm caramel, then roll them in your chosen toppings.

  6. 6

    Place the finished apples on a piece of parchment paper until the caramel sets.

๐Ÿ’ก Tips

Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to two days. If you are serving a large group, you can toss the apple slices in a little lemon juice to keep them from turning brown before you dip them.
