Easy Caramel Apple Bar
Create your own perfect fall treat with this fun and interactive caramel apple bar.
recipesbynani.comThere 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.
🧺 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
👩🍳Instructions
- 1
Wash the apples thoroughly and dry them well.
- 2
Slice the apples into thick wedges or leave them whole if you prefer traditional caramel apples.
- 3
Insert a wooden stick into the bottom of each apple wedge or whole apple.
- 4
Set out bowls for the caramel sauce, melted chocolate, and all your favorite toppings.
- 5
Dip each apple into the warm caramel, then roll them in your chosen toppings.
- 6
Place the finished apples on a piece of parchment paper until the caramel sets.
💡 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.
