Two Apple Crisps With Caramel Sauce Recipes

BEST EVER CARAMEL APPLE CRISP

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 F (175 degree C).
• 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.
• 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.
• Bake in preheated oven for about 45 minutes (apple mixture will bubble and topping will be golden brown).

CARAMEL-APPLE CRISP

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Stir the caramel topping and cinnamon together in a bowl. Toss in the apples, mixing until evenly coated. Spread apple mixture into an 8-inch square baking dish.
• Mix flour and brown sugar into the same bowl used to mix the apples. Cut in the butter with a knife or pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the oats, then crumble over the apples.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the apples are tender and the topping is golden brown, 45 to 50 minutes.

TWO-APPLE CRISPS WITH CARAMEL SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• To make the topping, combine the brown sugar, flour, oats, cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Using a fork, cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside until ready to use.
• In a large bowl, toss the apples with the granulated sugar, lemon juice, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt. Divide the apples among 8 ramekins, mounding them. Cover the apples with the oat topping, pressing the mixture lightly onto the apples. Make sure the apples are completely covered by the topping.
• Bake for 45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender when pierced with a fork. Let the crisps cool for 5 minutes before serving. Drizzle each one with caramel sauce.
• Pour 6 tablespoons water into a heavy-bottomed 2-quart saucepan. Add the sugar and heat over medium-high, occasionally swirling the water gently, until the sugar melts, about 3 minutes.
• While the sugar is cooking, bring the cream and salt to a simmer in a separate small, covered saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally. As soon as the mixture starts to simmer, remove it from the heat.
• Once the sugar is completely melted, raise the heat to high and boil it for 6 to 10 minutes, or until the mixture turns the color of straw. Reduce the heat to medium and continue to cook for 2 minutes, or until the syrup is a deep amber color. (Pay close attention during these last 2 minutes of cooking so the syrup does not burn.)
• Remove the pan from the heat and carefully pour about one-third of the hot cream into the caramel. The mixture will bubble vigorously. Let the bubbling subside and add the remaining hot cream and the vanilla, whisking until smooth. Serve warm.
