How to Make the BEST Caramel Drizzled Praline Apples

This apple dessert is super simple to make, and the sky is the limit with serving ideas and variations. A few things of note I’d like to mention.

Ingredients you’ll need to make Caramel Drizzled Praline Apples: Apples (Gala, Honey Crisp or Granny Smith), butter, apple juice or apple cider, chopped pecans, light brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt and dulce de leche or a thick caramel ice cream topping.
Kitchen tools you’ll need: 10 inch skillet or baking pan, apple corer and slicer or sharp knife and cutting board, measuring cups and spoons, small bowl, large bowl.
I used Gala apples in this recipe however you can adapt using your favorite variety.
Depending on the variety of apples you choose to use, the amount of sweetness or liquid may need to be slightly adjusted.
Topping these apples with sweet, rich, buttery caramel just makes sense. Especially, if it’s dulce de leche. If you have a favorite caramel ice cream topping, by all means use that instead.
You can find dulce de leche at specialty shops and on the Hispanic foods isle of most grocery stores.
These praline baked apples are so tasty they can be served with or without a drizzle of caramel. Although, they’re designed to be enjoyed with the drizzle of caramel to tie all of the flavors together. They’re also spectacular with a drizzle of my Bourbon Praline Pecan Sauce.
Add a scoop or two of vanilla ice cream, or fresh whipped cream and it’s bound to be a happy dessert day in your kitchen.
Store baked Praline Pecan Apples chilled in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in single servings in the microwave and enjoy.

What is Dulce de Leche? Dulce de Leche is a luscious thick caramel made from cooking and reducing sweetened condensed milk. It’s readily available in the Hispanic foods section of most grocery stores or specialty stores such as World Market and Williams Sonoma. Alternatively, checkout my recipe for homemade dulce de leche made in a slow cooker. It’s one of my favorite things on the planet.
