Crock Pot Caramel Apple Dip

Like apple pie but easier!

Want to make apple pie for friends and family who are coming over but don’t want to go through all the fuss of making a homemade pie? This caramel apple dip is for you. Next to buying a frozen pie, this doesn’t get much simpler. And who doesn’t love a good, sweet dip?

Crock Pot Caramel Apple Dip

It is a perfect party food for your upcoming holiday parties or tailgating fun. AND, I also show you how to make Homemade Cinnamon Chips! Woot!

Ingredients:
for the dip:
5 cups peeled & finely diced granny smith apples
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1 (15 oz.) container caramel dip, divided use

For the cinnamon chips:
10 flour tortilla shells
2 tbsp. melted butter
cinnamon sugar (4 tbsp. sugar & 1 tsp. cinnamon)Directions:

For the dip: Add chopped apples into a 3-quart (or larger) slow cooker and sprinkle with cinnamon.

Confession: This is the first time I have ever used an apple peeler, corer & slicer. I have always done it by hand. I think I am hooked. Plus, I love how small I can chop the apples for this dip.Now, this next part will be hard because you have to open the container of Marzetti’s Caramel Dip and resist the urge to eat it by the spoonful. Ha!

 Spoon 3/4 of the container caramel dip (save the rest for later) on top of the apples.

 Stir until combined.

Cover and cook on high in a 2.5-quart slow cooker for 1- 1.5 hours or low for 2-3 hours.

Cook’s Note: The apples will cook down slightly. They will also produce some extra liquid. What I like to do (after cooking) is remove some of that extra liquid (with a turkey baster or a spoon.) Then add the leftover caramel dip and stir it in at the end. This will keep the dip thicker. Then re-cover and put the slow cooker on the “warm” setting.

For the cinnamon chips: Preheat oven to 350f degrees. Spray a couple of cookie sheets with nonstick cooking spray. Place tortilla shells onto the cookie sheets then spread the melted butter onto each tortilla shell with a pastry brush.

Sprinkle generously with cinnamon sugar mixture. Next, cut the tortillas into triangles (using a pizza cutter or a knife).Bake for about 8-10 minutes until light, golden brown. Allow to cool. Then dig into caramel apple dip!

Enjoy!
