Ingredients
Granny Smith apples, cut into bite-size cubes
Mini pretzel twists
Caramel chocolates (such as Rolos or similar)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 250°F and line a baking sheet with foil.
- Arrange pretzel twists in a single layer on the prepared sheet.
- Place one caramel candy atop each pretzel.
- Bake for 4 minutes, or until the caramel candies are soft—not fully melted.
- While caramel softens, cut Granny Smith apples into bite-size cubes (leave skin on if desired).
- Skewer each apple cube onto a pretzel–caramel stack using a toothpick or skewer.
Notes
Ensure apples are dry before assembling to help caramel stick better. Optionally soak in lightly salted water for 5 minutes, rinse, and pat dry.
Use mini cupcake liners to keep bites tidy and party-ready.
Experiment with salted pretzels, different apple varieties, or different caramel types for flavor variations.
