I LOVE caramel apples during the fall, especially covered with peanuts! This recipe came about while I was making caramel apples and my husband was making an apple pie.. and the two came together into a perfect combination! I hope you enjoy it as much as we have!! Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened |
2 cups packed brown sugar |
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk |
1 cup light corn syrup |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/2 cup chopped roasted peanuts |
10 gala apples - peeled, cored and sliced |
1/2 cup butter |
3/4 cup packed brown sugar |
1/4 cup white sugar |
2 tablespoons flour |
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1/4 cup chopped peanuts |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
2. Place 1 cup butter, 2 cups brown sugar, condensed milk, corn syrup, and vanilla extract in a pan over medium-high heat. Stirring constantly, bring mixture to a boil. Lower heat to medium, and continue to stir while mixture simmers for about 12 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in 1/2 cup peanuts.
3. Place apples in a mixing bowl. Pour in the caramel sauce, and toss gently to coat apples. Pour into the prepared pan.
4. To make the crumb topping, use a pastry blender or two forks to mix 1/2 cup butter with 3/4 cup brown sugar, white sugar, flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a mixing bowl until crumbly. Stir in 1/4 cup peanuts. Sprinkle over the top of the apples. Place baking dish on a cookie sheet to prevent spills while baking.
5. Bake in preheated oven until top is crisped and apples can be pierced with a fork, about 45 minutes.
