Backyard Carnival Buffet

Caramel Apple How-To

A photo of caramel apples

It’s a fact: No fall carnival would 
be complete without ooey-gooey caramel apples. These sugary delights are as much a part of fall as pumpkin pie and fresh-pressed cider, and we made two different versions for twice the yumminess! Wash and thoroughly dry apples, and insert a Popsicle stick or skewer into the stem end of each. Follow package directions for melting caramel pieces, then dip apples halfway. Scrape bottoms to remove excess caramel. Roll in chopped pecans, if desired. Place on parchment paper; let stand for 1 hour or until caramel is set.
