Equipment
- apple corer optional
Ingredients
- 1 cup brown sugar
- ½ cup cream
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- 4-6 apples for dipping
- Flaky Salt
Instructions
- Prepare the Apples: Start by washing and slicing the apples. You can use an Apple Corer to make it easier. Set them aside on a nice plate for serving.
- Make the Caramel Sauce: Start stirring! Add the sugar to the pan at medium heat once the sugar is starting to smoke and foam a little. Add the butter and continue mixing with a wooden spoon. Once the butter is incorporated, add the heavy cream slowly. Don’t stop stirring until it is done.
- Watch the Magic Happen: Keep stirring! You'll see the mixture transform into a beautiful, smooth caramel. This should take about 10-15 minutes. Be patient – good things come to those who wait.
- Final Touches: Remove the saucepan from the heat once the caramel has thickened. Stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. This little secret elevates the flavor.
- Serve it Up: Pour the caramel into a serving bowl. Arrange the apple slices around it, top it with some flaky salt, and voilà! You have a beautiful, delicious snack ready.
Notes
Remember, the key to a great caramel is patience and constant stirring. Watch the temperature and lower the heat if needed. Don't rush it; you'll be rewarded with the perfect texture and flavor.
