Description

These apple caramel bombs are a delightful treat that combines the sweetness of caramel with the tartness of apples, creating a melt-in-your-mouth experience.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large apples, peeled and cored
  • 1 cup caramel sauce
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a mini muffin tin.
  2. Cut each apple into 8 small chunks. Place a caramel candy in the center of each apple chunk and press together to form a ball.
  3. In a bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in butter until crumbly. Stir in egg and vanilla to form a dough.
  4. Wrap dough around each apple ball, sealing edges. Roll gently to form a smooth bomb.
  5. Place bombs seam-side down in prepared muffin tin. Bake for 15-18 minutes until golden.
  6. Drizzle extra caramel sauce over warm bombs and top with walnuts if desired.

Notes

For best results, use firm apples like Granny Smith. Caramel bombs can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
