Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup dark-brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
1 tablespoon unfiltered apple-cider vinegar
4 to 5 firm red baking apples, such as Empire or Honeycrisp (2 pounds total)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger (from a peeled 1-inch piece)
Pinch of kosher salt
1 tablespoon heavy cream
Vanilla ice cream and crushed amaretto cookies, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Stir together both sugars, butter, and vinegar until well combined. Spread mixture evenly in the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
  • Peel and core apples, then slice into 3/4-inch-thick rounds. Toss with cinnamon, ginger, and salt in a bowl. Place on top of sugar mixture in a single layer, overlapping slightly if needed. Cover with parchment-lined foil and bake until just beginning to soften and bubble, 20 to 25 minutes. Spoon sauce over apples, and increase heat to 450 degrees. Continue to bake, uncovered, until sauce thickens and apples are soft and brown, about 15 minutes more.
  • Divide apples evenly among 4 bowls. Whisk cream into liquid in baking dish to make a caramel sauce. Transfer to a bowl; let cool until thickened slightly, about 10 minutes. Top apples with ice cream, caramel sauce, and cookies; serve.

Time 32m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons butter
4 medium-size, Granny Smith apples (about 1 1/4 pounds), peeled, cored, and cut into 1/2-inch slices
3/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons water
1/4 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 pint vanilla ice cream
1/4 cup salted cocktail peanuts, roughly chopped

Steps:

  • In a large saute pan over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons butter. Add apples and saute, turning occasionally for even cooking, until slightly golden and softened but still holding its shape, about 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a small saucepan over medium heat, add sugar and water. Stir occasionally and watch closely until color just starts to change to golden-amber, about 6 to 8 minutes. Remove pan from heat and carefully add cream (mixture will bubble and release steam). Gently stir until bubbles subside slightly, and put back over very low heat. Stir in remaining tablespoon butter, vanilla, and salt, and remove from heat. Set aside to thicken slightly.
  • Disperse apples into 4 serving bowls and spoon warm caramel sauce over to cover. Top each with a scoop of ice cream, spoon more caramel over the top, and garnish with peanuts.

Whether you prefer a classic apple sundae recipe or are looking for something unique, there are a few tips to keep in mind when making apple sundaes recipes. To make the most delicious apple sundae recipes, it's important to pick the right type of apple, choose the right toppings, and use the appropriate ingredients. This article provides valuable tips that can help you make delicious apple sundaes recipes. Choosing the Right Apples The type of apples you use for your apple sundaes will have a huge impact on the overall taste and texture of the dish. Here are some tips to help you select the best apples for your apple sundaes recipe: 1. Use Apples That are Firm and Crisp Select apples that are firm and crisp to ensure a nice texture for your apple sundaes. The best varieties for this are Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn apples. 2. Choose Apples That are Slightly Tart Apples that have a slightly tart or acidic taste are the best for making apple sundaes. This is because they will balance out the sweetness of any toppings you add. Some of the best tart apples are the Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Pink Lady apples. 3. Avoid Using Overripe Apples Overripe apples tend to be mushy and have a mealy texture. This makes them less suitable for use in your apple sundaes recipe. Avoid using apples with brown spots or bruises, as they can spoil the taste of your apple sundaes. Choosing the Right Toppings Toppings are an essential component of apple sundaes recipes. Here are a few tips to help you choose the best toppings for your apple sundaes: 1. Choose Complementary Flavors Try to select toppings that will complement the flavor of your apples. Cinnamon, nutmeg, and caramel pair well with apples, while crushed nuts, whipped cream, and chocolate sauce are also great toppings. 2. Use Fresh Toppings Try to use fresh toppings to add flavor to your apple sundae recipes. Fresh whipped cream, shaved chocolate, and nuts are all great examples of fresh toppings that can help elevate the taste of your apple sundaes. 3. Don't Overdo It When it comes to toppings, remember that less is more. Overloading your apple sundaes with too many toppings can make them difficult to eat. Instead, try to use just the right amount of toppings to achieve the perfect balance of flavors. Using the Right Ingredients The right ingredients are crucial to making great apple sundaes recipes. Here are a few tips to help you pick the best ingredients for your apple sundaes: 1. Use High-Quality Ice Cream The ice cream you use can make or break your apple sundae recipe. Make sure to use high-quality ice cream that has a rich, creamy flavor. Vanilla, caramel, and cinnamon flavors work well with apple sundaes. 2. Make Your Own Caramel Sauce While it's tempting to use store-bought caramel sauce, making your own caramel sauce is easy and adds an extra layer of flavor to your apple sundaes. Simply melt sugar over low heat, add cream, and stir till it thickens. 3. Make Your Own Whipped Cream Making your own whipped cream is easy and ensures that you are using fresh ingredients. Make sure to use heavy cream and sugar, and beat until it forms stiff peaks. Conclusion Apple sundaes recipes are delicious and versatile. With the right apples, toppings, and ingredients, you can create a tasty treat that satisfies your sweet tooth. Following these tips will ensure that your apple sundaes are perfect every time.
