READ NEXT: 100+ Snack Ideas for Kids Fall came around and I was depressed that I couldn’t eat caramel apples so I decided I was going to find a way to make it work. And that is how these apple fries were born. Apple fries with caramel dip are like eating your own little apple pie with every bite. The fried apples are lightly battered and fried in a shallow pan, then sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar. The dip is creamy and rich with caramel flavor. The two together are a delicious combination and a must-try for apple season.This light and tasty dessert is a perfect weeknight treat that is so simple to make! It is so simple to make and always a family favorite. Slice your granny smith apples and get ready for a sweet and savory delicious treat!
Granny smith apples – Wash and slice the green apples. Buttermilk – This gives the apple flavor, and helps the flour coat and hold firm to the apples. Sugar – A two-part ingredient. Use for part of the coating and then used again for sprinkling over top of the slices once they are hot. Wondra flour – Helps coat the apples and gives them a thickness before frying them. They will fry up better with this flour. Oil – Fill the pan with either vegetable or canola oil to fry the apples. Cinnamon – Sprinkle overtop the hot apples with sugar.
Take your apples to the next level with sweetness and fried to-perfection apples! This fall dessert recipe is so simple and comes together quickly for all of your favorite fall gatherings. Make these in batches and enjoy a sweet treat your family will love!
Flour mixture – Substitute cornstarch or all-purpose flour for the Wonda flour. They are both thicker compared to Wonda flour but will help for frying. Slicing fruit – Cut them into long slices for fried apple sticks or slice them into small bite-sized squares. Apples – A tart, crisp apple, such as a Granny Smith, is the best combination for a sweet and savory dessert. This is perfect blend with the sugar and cinnamon mixture. Spices – For a more desired flavor add apple pie spice, pumpkin pie spice, or ginger and nutmeg separately.
Cream cheese – an 8 ounce package, softened. Cool whip – one 8 ounce tub to whip into the cream cheese mixture. You can also whip heavy cream and half a cup of sugar and mix with a hand mixer until stiff peaks form. Caramel sauce – I like the flavor of Mrs. Richardson’s Butterscotch Caramel as an option. You can also make this with our homemade caramel butterscotch sauce. It’s so delicious and is a perfect dessert dip. If you’re in a hurry you can just use this caramel sauce without adding the Cool Whip or cream cheese layer. Store it in the refrigerator until time to serve. Add ins (optional) – Add toffee bits, crushed candy bar, or Heath bar bits to the dip to add a little crunch.
Use this caramel cream dip for as a dipping sauce for not just apples, but all sorts of things. It’s a delicious after school snack. Just pile a serving dish with all kinds of fruits, crackers and pretzels and a pot of homemade caramel apple dip. Try it with these snacks:
