Although I made this caramel dip with apples in mind, I am sure you will find yourself sneaking other snack options into the party. So let me suggest a few! This caramel dip recipe goes great with a side of fresh chopped fruits. Try dipping slices of strawberries, peaches, pears, or bananas for a comforting effortless snack.

Topping Ideas!

If you are looking for major cooking credit during the next family gathering, then you might want to think outside the box while preparing this popular Fall treat. The art of desserts lies in the amount of creativity you can pour in a traditional recipe. So for this one, here is what you can do for extra spice! Try decorating your caramel dipped apples with some melted white or semi-sweet chocolate. We don’t want your dip to turn too sweet, so just a small drizzle will suffice. Also, adding sprinkles or crushed candy would result in a festive and colorful look to your apples which would be iconic during celebratory parties. Finally, some would even prefer a gentle coat of chopped nuts onto their apple. It all really depends on your preferences and how brave your taste buds are during this spooky Fall season.

Try. Eat. Repeat!

Tips for the Best Caramel Apple Dip:

Cut the apples too early and they are turning brown? Don’t you worry! Soak your apple slices in 2 cups of water and ¼ teaspoon salt for 5 minutes; then rinse and store. This should withhold oxidation for a few days.
Use room temperature ingredients when you start making this recipe. This is a tip I feel the need to constantly give. Having your ingredients at room temperature would save you from many problems.
