Indulge in the perfect combination of sweet caramel, crunchy pecans, and juicy apples with this irresistible caramel pecan apple pie. This decadent dessert is a must-try for any pie lover looking to add a twist to a classic apple pie recipe.

Ingredients

  • 1 refrigerated pie crust
  • 5-6 large apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup caramel sauce

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F and line a pie dish with the refrigerated pie crust.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the sliced apples, sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Mix well to coat the apples evenly.
  3. Pour the apple mixture into the prepared pie crust and drizzle the caramel sauce over the top. Sprinkle the chopped pecans on top.
  4. Cover the pie with the second pie crust or create a lattice pattern with strips of dough. Brush the top crust with the beaten egg.
