Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 2 apples your favorite variety
  • ½ cup caramel dip
  • 5 tablespoons butter melted
  • ½ cup oats
  • 1 premade pie crust
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice for brushing
  • 1 egg + 1 tablespoon water
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F. Slice off the top 1/2 inch of two apples. Chop up the leftover top. Use a melon baller to scoop out the core of the apple.
  • Then use the melon baller to remove the rest of the inside of the apple flesh, leaving about 1/8 of an inch remaining attached to the skin. Toss the apple insides with lemon juice and brush the juice along the inside of the apple to prevent browning.
  • Unroll the pie crust and use a pizza cutter to create 1/2 inch wide strips. Weave the strips into squares approximately 4x4 inches wide.
  • In a small bowl, melt the butter. Stir in the oats until covered in butter, followed by the caramel sauce. Stir until completely incorporated.
  • Add the apple insides and gently fold the apples into the caramel sauce.
  • When cooled, spoon the filling into each apple.
  • Place the weaved pie crust onto the tops of each apple, pressing gently to the sides of the apple to seal in the filling.
  • Combine the egg and tablespoon of water in a small bowl, then brush the egg wash onto the top of the apple's pie crusts.
  • Put the apples on a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops of the crust are nice and golden brown.
  • Sprinkle with cinnamon or powdered sugar. Let cool for 10 minutes and serve, or chill completely and serve with ice cream. Enjoy!
