Easy Himalayan Salted Caramel Apples

When the temperatures drop and the leaves start to fall from the trees, around the time I am buying my kids pumpkins I start to crave a really good caramel apple. I get the hankering about once a year, but when I get it, I have to have one (or two). The secret to great caramel apples is the sweet to tart ratio therefore I prefer Granny Smith apples because they are the most tart which plays off the sweet caramel well. And since salted caramel is so hot right now (and I love it) I just had to add a little Himalayan salt. Besides, I recently bought a giant bottle at Costco. It’s the only pink thing in my house of men. So I came up with a really easy Himalayan salted caramel apples recipe.

Keep in mind, I am a good cook, but am not a great baker. It’s something I freely admit. If you have seen my baking you will see why. I have no patience and like to tinker with recipes which works when cooking but not baking. The only exception is my Easy To Make Apple Cake With Caramel Sauce recipe which you basically can’t mess up. It’s always delicious and that’s because you load it with caramel sauce! It’s a crowd pleaser.

Admittedly these caramel apples became slightly burnt. It just happened because I took my eyes off the stove for a few minutes. But you know what? They tasted fantastic. So for once my cooking mistake turned out to be a good thing.

YES! I LOOK FORWARD TO #GROWINGYOUNGER
