Ingredients
  

For the Bites
  • 1 cup Pretzel Snaps Opt for thin pretzels for better caramel adhesion.
  • 10 pieces Caramel Squares Use soft caramels for easy melting.
  • 2 medium Apples Granny Smith preferred; soak in lemon juice to prevent browning.

Step-by-Step Instructions

  2. Arrange pretzel snaps in a single layer on the tray, leaving 1 inch of space between each.
  3. Place one caramel square on top of each pretzel snap, centered for even melting.
  4. Bake for about 10-15 minutes until caramels are soft but not fully melted.
  5. Core and cut apples into 1-inch cubes, soak in lemon juice, then drain and dry thoroughly.
  6. Press an apple cube onto each caramel-topped pretzel immediately after removing from the oven.
