Categories     dessert

Time 32m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons butter
4 medium-size, Granny Smith apples (about 1 1/4 pounds), peeled, cored, and cut into 1/2-inch slices
3/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons water
1/4 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 pint vanilla ice cream
1/4 cup salted cocktail peanuts, roughly chopped

Steps:

  • In a large saute pan over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons butter. Add apples and saute, turning occasionally for even cooking, until slightly golden and softened but still holding its shape, about 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a small saucepan over medium heat, add sugar and water. Stir occasionally and watch closely until color just starts to change to golden-amber, about 6 to 8 minutes. Remove pan from heat and carefully add cream (mixture will bubble and release steam). Gently stir until bubbles subside slightly, and put back over very low heat. Stir in remaining tablespoon butter, vanilla, and salt, and remove from heat. Set aside to thicken slightly.
  • Disperse apples into 4 serving bowls and spoon warm caramel sauce over to cover. Top each with a scoop of ice cream, spoon more caramel over the top, and garnish with peanuts.

The caramel apple takes a sophisticated turn in this dessert. Baked with butter, sugar, ginger, and cinnamon, the fruit goes soft and spicy before you finish it with a rich caramel sauce that's mostly made in the oven, plus vanilla ice cream and crushed store-bought amaretto cookies.

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup dark-brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
1 tablespoon unfiltered apple-cider vinegar
4 to 5 firm red baking apples, such as Empire or Honeycrisp (2 pounds total)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger (from a peeled 1-inch piece)
Pinch of kosher salt
1 tablespoon heavy cream
Vanilla ice cream and crushed amaretto cookies, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Stir together both sugars, butter, and vinegar until well combined. Spread mixture evenly in the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
  • Peel and core apples, then slice into 3/4-inch-thick rounds. Toss with cinnamon, ginger, and salt in a bowl. Place on top of sugar mixture in a single layer, overlapping slightly if needed. Cover with parchment-lined foil and bake until just beginning to soften and bubble, 20 to 25 minutes. Spoon sauce over apples, and increase heat to 450 degrees. Continue to bake, uncovered, until sauce thickens and apples are soft and brown, about 15 minutes more.
  • Divide apples evenly among 4 bowls. Whisk cream into liquid in baking dish to make a caramel sauce. Transfer to a bowl; let cool until thickened slightly, about 10 minutes. Top apples with ice cream, caramel sauce, and cookies; serve.
