Description
A simplified version of caramel apples where sliced fruit is roasted with a rich brown sugar and butter glaze on a single sheet pan.
Ingredients
Scale
- 6 medium Granny Smith apples, cored and sliced into 1/2 inch wedges
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Arrange the apple slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine melted butter and brown sugar, stirring until smooth.
- Whisk in the heavy cream, cinnamon, salt, and cornstarch. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
- Pour the caramel sauce evenly over the apple slices, ensuring each piece is well-coated.
- Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the sauce is bubbling.
- Remove from the oven and let the apples cool for 5-10 minutes to allow the glaze to set before serving.
