The only two types of apples I use are Granny Smith and Honey Crisp. But really it boils down to personal preference. I prefer an apple that has a sweet/tart flavor to contrast with the sweet caramel and other toppings. Granny Smith are my top favorites. Their zingy, tart flavor are perfect for caramel apples. You can use any size of apples, but tr...
Of anything I painstakingly type out in this post, this area right hereis probably the most important. I can’t understate how critical it is to wash and clean the apples thoroughly. Like, as thoroughly as you have ever cleaned anything in your life. (If you haven’t cleaned anything in your life, now’s the time to dig deep for some cleaning superpow...
I have used many different types of skewers and sticks for caramel apples. Everything from a real, live stick from our yard (you can see it in action on this post – cute, but a little hard to work with) to lollipop sticks. The ones I use most are 6-inch white lollipop sticks. I usually pick them up at Hobby Lobby or Amazon {aff. link}. You can also...
This really isn’t rocket science. Just nestle the stick into the little divot where the stem is (make sure to remove the stem – if it doesn’t come out all the way, don’t stress, just press it to the side while you pound in the stick) and pound lightly with a hammer or meat mallet. You’re just guesstimating here, but you don’t want to pound on the s...
When making homemade caramel apples, I use either: -a slightly modified version of this amazing homemade caramel (recipe below) OR -Peter’s caramel (a store bought brand that comes in a brick so you don’t get carpal tunnel unwrapping a million caramels – also, it doesn’t have an artificial after taste like a lot of other store bought soft caramel b...
One batch of homemade caramel like the one I linked above (that yields a 9X9-inch pan of caramels) will make about 12-14 medium-sized caramel apples. A 5-pound loaf of Peter’s caramel will make about 20-24 medium-sized caramel apples. The exact number will depend on the size of the apples and how thickly they are coated with caramel.
The temperature of the caramel is really important. Whether you’re using homemade or store bought caramel, the temperature of the caramel should be about 180 to 190 degrees Ffor dipping the apples. Much warmer and the caramel might slide off or form a thin layer instead of a nice, substantial caramel layer. If the caramel is too cool, it will be re...
This may seem pretty straightforward, but it is another area of making homemade caramel apples where how you dip can make a difference in the outcome.Mostly, again, for those bubbles that sometimes appear on the surface of the caramel after the apples are dipped. Can you tell those bubbles drive me completely nuts-o? I’ve mentioned them at least 50...
While dipping the apples in caramel, I keep a sheet pan in the refrigerator. I immediately place each caramel-dipped apple on the refrigerated sheet pan after dipping. I line the sheet pan with parchment paper. This is really, really important. Do NOT use wax paper or cooking spray or paper towels or anything else.You’ll end up with caramel apples ...
Now comes the fun part. The world is your oyster when it comes to potential sweet flavor combinations for the caramel apples. Here are a few of my favorites: 1. Apple Pie: caramel + white chocolate + graham crackers crumbs (mixed with a hint of nutmeg and cinnamon) – this is actually my all-time favorite caramel apple flavor profile which is shocki...
