Pecan prailine apples

Pecan Praline Apples are a delightful dessert that combines the crisp, fresh taste of apples with the rich, nutty flavor of pecan praline. This treat is perfect for a special occasion or a cozy evening at home. The recipe is simple yet elegant, allowing the natural sweetness of the apples to shine through while being enhanced by the crunchy pecan praline topping.

Ingredients:

4 apples
640g
1/3 cup pecans
40g
1 cup sugar
200g
1/2 cup water
120g
1 tsp vinegar
5g

Instructions:

1. Preparation:
- Wash and dry the apples thoroughly. You can choose to peel them or leave the skin on, depending on your preference.
- Core the apples, being careful to remove all seeds but keeping the apples whole for a lovely presentation.
2. Preparing the Pecan Praline:
- Heat a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat.
- Add the sugar and water to the saucepan. Stir gently until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Add the vinegar. This helps to prevent the sugar from crystallizing.
- Allow the mixture to come to a boil without stirring. Boil it until it turns a light golden brown, which should take about 8–10 minutes. This will be your caramel base.
- Once the caramel has reached the desired color, immediately remove the saucepan from the heat.
- Quickly stir in the chopped pecans, ensuring they are well-coated with the caramel.
3. Coating the Apples:
- Working quickly (as the caramel will harden as it cools), carefully dip each apple into the hot praline mixture. Use a spoon to help coat the apples evenly if needed.
- Place the coated apples on a sheet of parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to cool and harden. If you like, you can also stick a wooden skewer or popsicle stick in the top of each apple for easier handling.
4. Serving:
- Allow the praline apples to cool completely at room temperature. Once the coating is hard, they are ready to be served.
- These praline apples make for a delightful treat on their own, or you can slice them up and serve them with a side of vanilla ice cream for an extra special dessert.

Tips:

- Choose firm apples such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp to ensure they hold up well during cooking.

- Toast the pecans lightly before adding them to the praline mixture to enhance their nutty flavor.

- Use a candy thermometer to monitor the sugar mixture for precise results.

- Allow the praline coating to harden completely before serving for the best texture.

- You can store leftover Pecan Praline Apples in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

In just a few steps, you can transform ordinary apples into a show-stopping dessert that's sure to impress. The combination of tender apples and crispy pecan praline creates a delicious contrast of textures and flavors. Serve these Pecan Praline Apples warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for a truly indulgent experience.
