Description
This Apple Pie Dip with Pie Crust Chips is a cozy twist on classic apple pie, featuring cinnamon-spiced apples mixed with caramel sauce, served warm alongside golden, crispy pie crust chips. Perfect for fall gatherings or a comforting dessert at home.
Ingredients
4 Granny Smith apples, peeled and diced
2 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons water
1/4 cup caramel sauce
1 egg
1 tablespoon water (for egg wash)
2 round pie crusts, unbaked
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the diced apples, cinnamon, brown sugar, salt, flour, and water. Stir and cook for 8–10 minutes until the apples are softened and fragrant.
- Remove from heat and stir in the caramel sauce. Let the mixture cool slightly.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and 1 tablespoon of water to make an egg wash.
- Unroll the pie crusts and lightly brush the tops with the egg wash.
- Cut the dough into triangles or small rectangles and place on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake the pie crust chips for about 15 minutes, or until they are lightly golden and crisp.
- Serve the warm apple pie dip with the pie crust chips on the side for dipping.
Notes
Use puff pastry instead of pie crust for a flakier chip.
Add chopped pecans or walnuts to the apple mixture for extra texture.
Enhance the spice flavor with a dash of nutmeg or cloves.
Swap caramel with maple syrup for a rustic sweetness.
Store leftover dip in the fridge for up to 4 days; reheat gently before serving.
Store pie crust chips separately in an airtight container at room temperature for 2–3 days.
