Peanut Butter Caramel Apples
Ingredients
- 6 pcs Granny Smith or Macintosh apples
- 1/2 cup well-stirred smooth natural peanut butter at room temperature (I recommend Arrowhead Mills)
- 1/2 cup brown rice syrup at room temperature
- 1 cup salted roasted peanuts chopped well
- 6 pcs bamboo skewers
- Wax paper
Instructions
- Stick skewers through the bottoms of the apples. Make sure apples are secure. Set aside.
- Spread a piece of parchment paper over a cutting board. Make room in your fridge for the cutting board, because you’ll be chilling the whole shebang.
- Stir peanut butter and brown rice syrup together in a small sauce pan. Gently heat over low heat, stirring constantly with a fork, just until smooth and heated through. It should fall from your fork in ribbons. If it seems stiff, turn the heat off immediately and add a little extra brown rice syrup, until it’s fluid again. This happens because different peanut butters have varying amounts of moisture.
- Use a spoon to spread peanut butter caramel over the entire apple. Sprinkle with peanuts, pressing peanuts into the caramel to make them stick. It’s ok if a few fall off. Place apple upside down on the wax paper and continue with the rest of the apples.
- Transfer the cutting board with the apples to the fridge. Let set for at least 3 hours. Now apples are ready to eat!
