I combined ingredients from various apple crisp recipes to create this one. I like to use tart apples because they provide a balance to the sweetness of the caramels. âMelissa Williams, Peoria, Illinois Ingredients:
8 cups sliced peeled tart apples |
33 caramels, divided |
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons 2% milk, divided |
3/4 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
3/4 cup quick-cooking oats |
3/4 cup packed brown sugar |
1/2 cup chopped walnuts |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
dash ground cinnamon |
1/2 cup cold butter, cubed |
vanilla ice cream, optional |
Directions:
1. Place the apples in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. In a heavy saucepan, melt 25 caramels with 2 tablespoons milk, stirring often; drizzle over apples. 2. In a large bowl, combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, walnuts, salt and cinnamon; cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle over apples. 3. Bake at 375° for 45-50 minutes or until golden brown. Cool for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, in a heavy saucepan, melt remaining caramels with remaining milk, stirring often until smooth. Drizzle over dessert and ice cream if desired. Yield: 12-16 servings. |
