Description

Delicious bite-sized treats made with pretzel dough, gooey caramel, and tart apples, perfect for autumn gatherings.


Ingredients

  • Pretzel Dough (store-bought or homemade)
  • Caramel Sauce (store-bought or homemade)
  • Crisp Tart Apples (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
  • Sea Salt
  • Unsalted Butter (for brushing)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F. If making dough from scratch, mix ingredients until smooth, then let rise for 30 minutes.
  2. Punch down the dough, divide into bite-sized pieces, and shape into pretzel forms.
  3. Dissolve baking soda in boiling water for a bath; boil pretzel bites for about 30 seconds.
  4. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet, brush with melted butter, and sprinkle with sea salt. Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden brown.
  5. Cool slightly, drizzle warm caramel over bites, and top with apple cubes.
  6. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

Tip: Make sure not to overcrowd the pot while boiling, and pay attention to caramel consistency to avoid burning.
