BAKED CARAMEL APPLES

Ingredients:

  • 4 medium apples (any kind)
  • 8 unwrapped caramels
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon
  • 1/8 cup rolled oats
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 tsp. cinnamon
  • 2 Tbsp. butter, chilled

Directions:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line an 8x8 baking pan with foil.
  • In a small bowl, mix oats, flour, brown sugar and cinnamon. Cut in butter with a fork or pastry cutter until the mixture is crumbly. Set aside.
  • Cut off the tops of the apples and, with a melon scoop or spoon, scoop out the core of the apple. Make sure to remove all seeds, but leave the bottom in tact so that you have an apple "bowl."
  • Place two caramels in each apple, and sprinkle with cinnamon (1/4 tsp. for each).
  • Generously sprinkle with the crumb topping.
  • Bake for about 20-25 minutes.
