Perfect for kids and adults to enjoy Fall or Halloween, and satisfy the need for a SWEET treat.Homemade Caramel Apple Slices are a wonderful treat to make during apple season! They are like caramel apples on a stick, but way easier to take a bite of because they are served a slice at a time. The chewy caramel satisfies the need for a sweet treat while adding a slice of refreshing and nutritious apple, certainly a win during fall shenanigans or a Halloween party! &nbsp;The caramel apple slices are so much fun because they are easy to make and delicious to eat! I got ya covered with directions and photos to guide you along the way. Your kiddos who love to help in the kitchen can follow along (with caution or parent help when needed during the “hot” spots in the directions). &nbsp;I’m sure your family is like mine, and everyone has different taste preferences. So feel free to add ingredients like pretzels, sprinkles, mini m&amp;m candy, toffee, or coconut flakes. You can also leave out any of the ingredients, like my kids prefer to pass on the nuts and sea salt. &nbsp;You could even make this recipe a family activity and each person could make their own caramel apple slice, just the way they like it–Perfect! &nbsp;You may be wondering why the slice… &nbsp;here are the benefits I have come up with.&nbsp;Make sure to follow the directions to keep the apple from browning.Caramel apple slices are best served within the same day you make them or within 24 hrs. Once made, just pop them into your fridge to keep them fresh until you are ready to eat. &nbsp;Before any food projects with kids, make sure to check with their parents for any food allergies and use precaution and make adjustments as needed. This recipe calls for nuts but if anyone is allergic to them, do not use them or even include them to avoid any cross-contamination.&nbsp;Replace the Chocolate:&nbsp;Enjoy Life makes dairy-free and gluten-free food&nbsp;for kiddos (and adults) with allergies. It is a great alternative for those who need to replace melting chocolates (read the ingredients and manufacturing information).&nbsp;Replace the Caramel:&nbsp;Cocomels makes a Coconut Milk Caramel&nbsp;that you could try with this recipe. I have not had a chance to try these but the reviews look great!Replace the Heavy Cream:&nbsp;Silk makes a Dairy Free Liquid Heavy Cream&nbsp;that works great in recipes. I like how it is a liquid and not powder.&nbsp;If you like our Caramel Apple Slices I would love for you to PIN IT! It helps you SAVE the recipe and others discover it too, which lets us bring you more AWESOME CONTENT like this.Prep:&nbsp;15 minutes&nbsp;Yields:&nbsp;approx. 7-10 depending on size of applesLine a baking sheet with wax paper and it to the side.Wash and slice your apples into about 1/2 inch wide slices, making sure they are thick enough to slide a popsicle stick into it. Depending on how large your apple is, you should be able to get between 3-5 slices.Carefully use a sharp knife (adult only) to cut a slit into the bottom of the apple slice. Then, slide a popsicle stick into it.Use a paper towel to pat down each side of the apple slices to remove any moisture so the caramel can stick to the apple.Take out any seeds and lay the apples down on your prepared baking sheet.Melt the melting chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl for 30-second increments. Stir, and repeat until it is melted.Spread the chocolate on top of the apple and let it harden. You could even pop them in the fridge for a minute if it’s taking longer than expected to harden.&nbsp;To make the caramel sauce, unwrap the caramels and place them in your second small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 30-second increments, stirring between each session until the caramel is melted. Drizzle the heavy cream in, and continue to stir until the mixture is smooth and all mixed together.Use a spoon to spread the caramel on top of the chocolate. Avoid getting the caramel too close to the edge of the apple. Use a fork to pop any large air bubbles.&nbsp;Quickly, while the caramel is still hot, sprinkle the pecans, sea salt, and any other toppings you like on top. (Kids may prefer to skip the sea salt.)&nbsp;Brush any exposed edges of the apple with lemon juice to reduce browning.Refrigerate the apples until you are ready to serve. Then enjoy the best apples of the season!&nbsp;Tips and Tricks:&nbsp;Print RecipeI'm Katie, a mom with 3 cuties sharing ACTIVITIES, crafts, recipes, &amp; printables for you to enjoy at Home or School with millions of visitors like you.
