We created this caramel apple crisp dessert after our class visited an apple farm this fall. We realized that we all shared a common love for apples in caramel sauce! We hope your whole family will enjoy this!

Ingredients

  • 5 large Granny Smith apples - peeled, cored, and thinly sliced

  • ½ cup white sugar

  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

  • ¼ cup water

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 cup brown sugar

  • 1 cup quick cooking oats

  • 1 cup butter, softened

  • 1 (14 ounce) package individually wrapped caramels, unwrapped

  • 1 (5 ounce) can evaporated milk

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 F (175 degree C).

  2. Toss apples in a medium size bowl with sugar, flour, cinnamon, lemon juice, and water; spread evenly into a 8x8-inch pan.

  3. Mix flour, brown sugar, oats, and butter together in another bowl; spoon mixture evenly over apples.

  4. To make the caramel sauce: Place caramels and evaporated milk in a heavy sauce pan over low heat; cook, stirring frequently, until caramels have melted and sauce is smooth; drizzle over crisp topping.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until apple mixture bubbles and topping is golden brown, about 45 minutes.
