✨ About This Recipe
This is one of those “why didn’t I think of this sooner?” snacks. Warm melty caramel, crisp green apples, and salty pretzels balance each other perfectly. They’re easy to portion, kid-friendly, and great for parties, snack boards, or a quick sweet fix.
They’re best fresh but still hold up surprisingly well for a short make-ahead.
