Oozing caramelized apples tumble over mounds of cinnamon-spiced ice cream layered with crumbled pecan-oat topping.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 Granny Smith apples, peeled and cored, each cut into 12 wedges
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
3 ounces (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter
2 1/4 cups sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons Calvados
1 1/2 cup heavy cream, divided
Cinnamon Ice Cream
Pecan-Oat Crumble

Steps:

  • Make the apples: Toss apples with lemon juice in a large bowl, and let stand. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add sugar, and stir until sugar dissolves and mixture is dark amber, about 15 minutes.
  • Stir in apples, their juices, and the salt. Reduce heat to medium-low, and cook, stirring occasionally, until apples are softened, about 10 minutes. Stir in Calvados and 1/2 cup cream. Transfer apple mixture to a bowl.
  • Prepare an ice-water bath. Set the bowl in the bath, and let apple mixture cool, stirring occasionally, until mixture is cold and sauce has thickened, about 20 minutes. Use immediately (or refrigerate overnight).
  • To assemble: Whisk remaining 1 cup cream to medium peaks. For each serving, place 2 caramelized apple wedges in a sundae glass. Top with a scoop of cinnamon ice cream, 2 caramelized apple wedges, and some pecan-oat crumble. Repeat ice cream, apple, and crumble layers. Top with whipped cream.

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: Use firm, tart apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp.
  • Slice the apples thinly: This will help them cook evenly and quickly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Cook the apples in a single layer so they can brown properly.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pan: This will help prevent the apples from burning.
  • Cook the apples until they are tender: They should be soft but still hold their shape.
  • Add the spices: Cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice are classic apple pie spices.
  • Sweeten to taste: Add sugar or honey to taste.
  • Top with vanilla ice cream: This is the classic way to serve apple sundaes.

Conclusion:

Hot apple sundaes are a delicious and easy dessert that can be enjoyed all year round. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a warm and comforting treat that will satisfy your sweet tooth. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dessert, give hot apple sundaes a try!
