Notes
- Use crisp apples like Granny Smith to keep your baked caramel apple slices from turning mushy during baking.
- Roll dough balls evenly and coat fully in cinnamon sugar for a sweet, golden finish every time.
- Don’t overcook the apples when sauteing—softened, not mushy, is what you want before baking.
- Let the dish cool slightly before adding caramel so the topping stays thick and gooey instead of running off.
