Caramel Apple Pretzel Bites

Remove the cookie sheet from the oven. Working quickly (while the caramels are still soft), press an apple piece (with the toothpick) gently into the center of each caramel-topped pretzel. Push the toothpick all the way through so the apple is securely attached.

  • Allow the bites to cool completely at room temperature or speed up the process by placing them in the refrigerator for 10–15 minutes.

    • Step 5: Serve and Enjoy

    1. Once cooled, remove the toothpicks and arrange the bites on a serving platter.
    2. Serve immediately and enjoy the delightful combination of sweet, salty, and crisp flavors!

    Notes:

    • Best Time to Eat: These bites are best enjoyed within 1–3 hours of making them. After that, the apples may start to “sweat” or release moisture, which can cause the caramel to loosen.
    • Preventing Browning: If you’re preparing the apples ahead of time, keep them submerged in Sprite or lemon water until ready to use. Dry them thoroughly before assembling the bites.
    • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 day. Bring to room temperature before serving for optimal texture.

    Tips for Success:

    • Choose Firm Apples: Use crisp, firm apples like Honeycrisp, Granny Smith, or Fuji. Softer apples may become mushy during assembly.
    • Work Quickly: The caramel hardens as it cools, so assemble the bites promptly after removing them from the oven.
    • Optional Drizzle: For an extra touch of decadence, drizzle melted chocolate or white chocolate over the cooled bites.
