"When our class visited an apple farm this fall, we realized that we all shared a common love apples dipped in caramel. We created this really easy dessert that the whole family can enjoy." 


Ingredients: 

  • Apple Filling: 5 large Granny Smith apples - peeled, cored, and thinly sliced 1/2 cup white sugar 
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon 
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice 1/4 cup water Crumble: 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 
  • 1 cup brown sugar 
  • 1 cup quick cooking oats 
  • 1 cup butter, softened Caramel Sauce: 1 (14 ounce) package inpidually wrapped caramels, unwrapped 
  • 1 (5 ounce) can evaporated milk 


Directions: 

  1. Preheat oven to 350 F (175 degree C). 
  2. In a medium size bowl, toss apples with sugar, flour, cinnamon, lemon juice, and water; spread evenly into a 8x8 inch pan. In another bowl, mix together flour, brown sugar, oats, and butter; spoon mixture evenly over apples. 
  3. In a heavy sauce pan over low heat, melt the caramels with the evaporated milk. Heat , stirring frequently, until mixture has a smooth consistency. Drizzle the caramel sauce over the top of the crumble. 
  4. Bake in preheated oven for about 45 minutes (apple mixture will bubble and topping will be golden brown).
