Best 8 Caramelized Apples With Fresh Rosemary Recipes

CARAMELIZED APPLES WITH FRESH ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450, with rack in top position. Bring cider and rosemary to a boil. Remove from heat, and let stand for 5 minutes. Discard rosemary.
• Combine sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl. Add apples, and toss. Coat a nonstick rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray. Arrange apples in a single layer on sheet. Bake for 9 minutes, then flip each slice, and bake for 5 minutes more. Pull out baking sheet on oven rack, and carefully pour infused cider over apples. Return sheet and rack to oven, and bake until apples are soft and glossy, about 5 minutes.
• Broil apples with oven door slightly ajar, rotating sheet halfway through, until edges are golden, about 2 minutes. Divide apples and juices among bowls. Serve with yogurt, if desired.

CARAMEL APPLES

Steps:

• Rinse and dry the apples. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. Push one stick into the top of each apple, then place on the baking sheet with the stick standing straight up.
• Place the cookies in a large resealable plastic bag and roll with a rolling pin to crush. Set aside.
• In a large saucepan over low heat, combine the sugar, buttermilk, butter, baking soda, and vanilla and bring just to a boil, stirring constantly. Attach a candy thermometer to the pan, and continue to boil and stir until the mixture reaches 238 degrees F, 15 to 17 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat.
• Dip each apple, one at a time, immediately into the caramel, leaving a 1/4-inch ring of green by the stick, and return the apple to the baking sheet. If the caramel starts to solidify while you are dipping apples, stir in heavy cream, a few drops at a time, until the caramel reaches a spreadable consistency.
• After all the apples have been dipped, lightly sprinkle them with sea salt. Allow the caramel to set, about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a microwave-safe bowl, microwave the white chocolate chips on high in 30-second intervals, stirring until melted. Dip each apple into the melted white chocolate, leaving a 1/4-inch ring of caramel exposed. Immediately dip the white chocolate-covered caramel apple in a layer of crushed cookie topping, leaving 1/4 inch of the white chocolate exposed.

CARAMELIZED APPLES

Steps:

• Melt butter in large skillet over medium heat; sprinkle sugar over. Stir until sugar begins to melt, about 1 minute. Add apples. Sauté until apples are brown and tender and juices form, about 10 minutes. Add cream and simmer until sauce thickens slightly, about 2 minutes. (Can be prepared 3 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature. Rewarm apples over medium heat.)

EASY CARAMEL APPLES

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with waxed paper and coat with cooking spray. In a medium saucepan, bring sugar and 1/2 cup water to a boil over high. Reduce to medium-high and simmer, undisturbed, until caramel is golden brown, 8 minutes. Remove from heat and carefully stir in cream (mixture will sputter). Transfer to a small bowl and let cool 5 minutes.
• With a paring knife, make a small slit in top of each apple. Insert an ice-pop stick 1 inch deep into each slit. Dip apples into caramel, swirling to coat. Sprinkle with nuts (if using) and transfer to sheet.

CARAMELIZED BAKED APPLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
• Wash and core to a half-inch of the bottoms of each apple. With a vegetable peeler, peel the tops and bottoms of each apple, leaving a band of skin approximately two inches wide. Place the apples one to two inches apart in a large baking dish. Sprinkle a little of the zest into the well of each apple. Add the cider to the dish and bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until tender but not mushy. Place the apples on a lightly oiled baking pan and allow to cool thoroughly.
• When the apples have cooled, place one cup of sugar and a half cup cold water in a medium-size heavy saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir with a wooden spoon until the sugar has dissolved. When the sugar begins to turn golden, rotate the pan to even the color. When the caramel is light amber, using a wooden spoon, carefully coat each apple with the hot caramel. (Caramel burns quickly and must be watched carefully. It will continue to cook and become a darker amber as you are working with it.) Repeat the method with the remaining sugar, using a clean, cool, medium-size heavy saucepan.
• Meanwhile, whip the cream into soft peaks and fold in the ginger and refrigerate until ready to serve the apples.
• When ready to serve, pry the apples from the baking pans with a metal spatula and arrange them on a serving platter or serve on individual dessert plates, accompanied with the ginger cream.

CARAMELIZED APPLES

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
• Add the apples to the pan and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar.
• Sauté the apples, stirring frequently, for 6-8 minutes, until they just start to turn tender.
• Sprinkle the apples with the remaining sugar, cinnamon, and lemon zest.
• Toss the mixture gently and cook over medium heat for an additional 2 minutes, until the sugar begins to caramelize and the apples are crisp-tender.
• Transfer the apples from the skillet to a serving bowl with a slotted spoon.
• Turn the heat to high and add the apple cider to the skillet, scraping up any browned bits.
• Reduce the heat slightly and allow the cider and the pan juices to simmer for 1-3 minutes, until the sauce has reduced and thickened slightly.
• If you desire a thicker sauce, dissolve the cornstarch in a teaspoon of water, stir it into the sauce, and allow it to thicken for a moment.
• Pour the finished sauce over the warm apples and serve immediately.

MICROWAVE ROSEMARY APPLES

Steps:

• Cut each apple into 16 wedges and place in a microwave-safe dish.
• Sprinkle apples with rosemary, cinnamon sugar, and water. Stir the apples and cover the dish. Microwave on high until tender, about 4 minutes, stirring halfway through.

CARAMELIZED APPLES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Combine 4 tablespoons butter with a cup of sugar and a tablespoon of water in a 10- or 12-inch nonstick ovenproof skillet. Place on stove on medium heat. Cook, shaking pan occasionally (do not stir), until sugar melts into butter and mixture bubbles.
• Turn off heat, add apples in layers. About halfway through, dot with some of the remaining butter and sugar. Use rest of butter and sugar on top, along with cinnamon if you like. Put in oven.
• Bake, undisturbed, until apples give up their liquid, and it evaporates and sides are dark brown and sticky-looking. This will take around 45 minutes, but it could be considerably longer or shorter depending on water content of apples. Remove, and let cool. Serve straight from pan or -- for a more attractive presentation -- invert onto a plate.
