Salted Caramel Apple Pie
Photo by Angie Mosier
Combine a traditional apple pie and a grown-up version of those caramel apples we used to enjoy as kids around Halloween, and you've got this salted caramel apple pie recipe. We mix a variety of three apples—Granny Smith, Pink Ladies, and Honey Crisps—and drizzle them with caramel sauce, then sprinkle on a bit of fleur de sel, a combination that satisfies those salty-sweet cravings.
This recipe was excerpted from 'The Back in the Day Bakery Cookbook' by Cheryl Day. Buy the full book on Amazon.
Cook's note:
Slice your apples the same thickness so that they will bake evenly. That way, you won’t get some apples that come out mushy while others remain firm. Using a mandoline or other slicer will ensure uniform slices and makes quick work.
