Hi Bold Bakers! IN THIS RECIPE: A twist on the classic apple pie that adds my signature salted caramel sauce. It also uses my simple Perfect Pie Crust recipe for a pie that should become a new classic! It’s made like a regular pie, but has a flavor you’ll swoon over. Already have an account? If there’s one way to up your apple pie game, it is without a doubt adding in some of my signature salted caramel sauce. It is so delicious on its own but paired with baked-down apples and a crispy pie crust, it’s downright addictive! The flavors in this pie are basically a masterclass of learning how food works and what goes great together. The tart apples balance out the sweetness of the caramel, the salt makes all the flavors pop, and the crust provides the perfect canvas for it all to go down. If you love classic apple pie, this recipe may convert you to a caramel apple pie only type of person. It’s a lot easier on the teeth than trying to chomp into a caramel apple too.

Gemma’s Pro Chef Tips For Making Caramel Apple Pie
Use my Homemade Pie Crust! Store-bought crust will work as well. Use my signature salted caramel sauce. Granny Smith apples work great in this pie because they are tart, but you can use any apple you prefer. Cover the top crust (or just the edges) with aluminum foil if the crust begins to over-brown before the apples are tender. It’s important to put your pie on a sheet pan to bake to catch any drippings, which can not only burn and cause smoke but also make cleaning up difficult. For an extra indulgent treat, serve this pie drizzled with a little more salted caramel sauce on top!
