Ingredients

Apple Rings

  • 3 apples of your choice
  • 2 tbsp of coconut oil
  • Cinnamon sugar (mix together 1/2 cup of sugar (we used coconut sugar) and 2 tbsp of cinnamon)


Salted Caramel Dip

  • 1/3 cup Coconut Cream
  • 2 tbsps Coconut Sugar
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1/2 cup Maple Syrup
  • A pinch of Sea Salt
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil
  • 2 tbsp butter (or dairy-free alternative)


Directions
  1. Wash and slice your apple into slices about 1 inch thick. Scoop out the middle of the slices with a melon baller or small spoon to create rings.
  2. Add coconut oil to a skillet and let melt. Sprinkle entire bottom of skillet with cinnamon sugar (and any other desired spices like ginger or nutmeg).
  3. Place apple rings in skillet and sprinkle the tops with some more cinnamon sugar (or plain cinnamon if you don't want them too sweet).
  4. For the caramel sauce, add the maple syrup, coconut cream, butter, sugar, and salt to a saucepan and bring to a low boil for about 1 minute.
  5. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 15 minutes. Then reduce heat to low and stir continuously for 3-5 minutes.
  6. Remove from heat and add vanilla and coconut oil.
  7. Pour into a jar or container and allow to cool.
  8. Dip your apple rings into the caramel, and enjoy!
