Variations on Caramel Dip for Apples
There are so many ways to change up this dip! Try adding regular chocolate chips for a pop of chocolate flavor or crushed toffee pieces for a buttery toffee flavor. Fold in some pumpkin pie spice for a warm, spicy flavor, or add in some chopped nuts for a nutty flavor.
Any apple is great for dipping. I love Honeycrisp, but Braeburn, Pink Lady, or Gala are also delicious. For a tart pairing, opt for Granny Smith!
Yes, this dip needs to be refrigerated. You can leave it out at room temperature for up to 2 hours without issue, though.
If properly stored, this dip will last for up to 5 days.
How to Store
This caramel apple dip should stay fresh for 3-5 days when properly stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It’s great that it lasts a few days, but I always prefer it on the first day or two after making it. So delish!
Serving Suggestions
I made this creamy caramel dip with apples in mind, so of course I recommend serving this with apple slices (green or red, whichever you prefer!). But there are plenty of other uses for this recipe.
Try this dip with pretzels, spread it lightly on toast for a special breakfast treat, mix it into a bowl of ice cream, or try it with other fruits (bananas, berries, or pears).
It would be amazing as a caramel fondue and you can dip to your heart’s desire! Cube other goodies, like cheesecake, brownies, or pound cake, and dip in the caramel sauce for a delicious treat!
