Caramel Apple Puff Pastries turn store‑bought puff pastry and a quick stovetop apple filling into flaky, bakery‑style hand pies drizzled with gooey caramel sauce. Each bite combines crisp, buttery layers, tender cinnamon‑spiced apples, and sweet caramel, making them perfect for fall desserts, brunch, or easy holiday entertaining.
Why you’ll love this recipe
