Easy Caramel Apple Pie Dip

Caramel Apple Dip is loaded with luscious apple chunks in brown sugar and caramel sauce and contains a sprinkle of apple pie spice. Made on the stovetop and ready in just 15 minutes!

Serve this dessert recipe with Cinnamon Sugar Pie Chips at parties or as an afternoon treat. Nothing says “comfort food” like the homey Apple Pie flavors of apples and cinnamon.

This ooey, gooey Caramel Apple Dip Recipe is a scrumptious pie dip that tastes like a cross between caramel apples and everyone’s favorite pie! Made with six ingredients, this easy recipe is a cinch to whip up and enjoy, now through fall.

You can use tart apples like Granny Smith’s or my favorite, Honeycrisp!

How Do You Make Caramel Apple Dip?

1. Combine chopped apples, lemon juice, light brown sugar, and apple pie spice in a medium pot. Cook over low-medium heat until the juice from the apple begins to boil.
2. Dissolve cornstarch in water in a small bowl and stir into apple mixture.
3. Bring to a boil again and allow the mix to thicken and begin to turn brown.
4. Add in caramel at the end and pour into a serving dish.

Optional: For some added sweetness, you can top this dessert dip with a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar or toffee bits.

Pro Tip: I absolutely love this apple peeler and corer, it’s so slick and really speeds up the prep time!

Does Caramel Apple Pie Dip Need To Be Refrigerated?

This yummy Caramel Dip is best served hot. If there are any leftovers (although there probably won’t be!) you cover them tightly with plastic wrap and store them in the fridge. Re-heat in a saucepan, and enjoy!

What Should I Serve With Caramel Apple Dip?

This Apple Dip tastes amazing with a variety of sweet or salty snacks. Graham crackers, cinnamon sugar pita chips, pretzel sticks or twists, and apple slices are all tasty options. 

I always serve this fruity concoction with a spoon so guests can help themselves (and double-dip from their own plates!).

But my favorite item to dip is homemade Cinnamon Sugar Pie Chips, made with refrigerated pie crust.

You can also serve this over cream cheese! Simply combine cream cheese with a few tablespoons of brown sugar and a teaspoon of vanilla extract and add the cream cheese mixture to a wide bowl. Then top with the apple pie dip and you have a creamy ready-to-serve dessert!

How To Make Cinnamon Sugar Pie Chips:

1. Preheat oven according to package directions and Roll pie crust out on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
2. Brush the dough with melted butter.
3. Using a pizza cutter, cut the pie crust into small wedges.
4. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar and bake for 10 minutes.

If you love easy-to-serve apple treats, Easy Mini Apple Pies and Caramel Apple Pie Napoleon fit the bill, too. This is especially true once the holidays roll around.

But those are a ways away, and there’s no need to wait to get your apple fill. Summer is the perfect time for fruit-filled treats of any kind if I do say so myself!

So if you’re a fan of the all-America dessert, Caramel Apple Dip tastes like a pie without all the work!
