Preparation: 10 minutes

Refrigeration: 30 minutes

Total Time: 40 minutes

Servings: 4

Yield: 8 slices

Ingredients:

• 2 pink lady apples
• 1 lemon, freshly squeezed
• Approximately 1 cup of store-bought caramel sauce (adjust as needed)
• 1/2 cup of chopped pecans
• 1/2 cup of pomegranate seeds

Directions:

1. Start by preparing a tray lined with parchment paper to place the apple slices on later.
2. Begin slicing both pink lady apples into thick, round slices. Aim for a total of 8 slices.
3. Place the apple slices in a shallow dish, ensuring to squeeze the juice of a lemon over both sides of each slice to preserve their freshness and prevent browning.
4. Next, heat the caramel sauce in a microwave-safe bowl for approximately 30 seconds or until it softens.
5. Take a paper towel and gently dry each apple slice to create a smooth surface for the caramel coating.
6. Dip half of each apple slice into the softened caramel sauce, ensuring it is evenly coated. Place the caramel-dipped apple slices onto the prepared tray and repeat the process with the remaining apples.
7. Once all the apple slices are coated with caramel, refrigerate them for approximately 30 to 40 minutes until the caramel has solidified and the slices have firmed up.
8. Just before serving, sprinkle the chopped pecans and pomegranate seeds onto the caramel-dipped side of each apple slice for added texture and a burst of flavor.

These irresistibly delicious caramel apple slices are perfect for serving as a delightful treat or as a unique and eye-catching dessert. Enjoy these sweet and savory bites as an indulgent treat on their own or share them with others to create memorable moments.
