# Ingredients You'll Need:

01 -
400 g white sugar

480 ml whipping cream
03 -
2 teaspoons flaky sea salt
→ Putting It Together
04 -
1 large honeycrisp apple, cut into 1.2 cm slices with core removed
05 -
42 g butter with salt
06 -
13 g dark sugar
07 -
1 teaspoon cinnamon powder
08 -
4 big scoops vanilla bean ice cream
# How to Make It:
01 -
Mix white sugar with just enough water to make wet sand in a small pot. Turn heat to high until it boils. Don't stir it. Just wet a pastry brush and wipe down the sides to get rid of any sugar bits.
02 -
In another small pot, warm the whipping cream on medium-high until it steams but doesn't boil.
03 -
Let the sugar keep boiling until you see an amber shade. Take it off the heat and slowly mix in the hot cream until it's smooth, taking about 3-5 minutes. Add the sea salt and mix. Let it cool down.
04 -
Turn your oven to 175°C and put the rack in the middle. Put parchment on a baking sheet with edges.
05 -
Lay out your apple slices in one layer on your lined baking sheet.
06 -
Melt the butter in a pot over medium-low heat. Throw in dark sugar and cinnamon, giving it a stir now and then until sugar melts, roughly 5-6 minutes.
07 -
With your pastry brush, cover both sides of each apple slice with your sweet cinnamon mix. Put them in the oven and bake until soft, about 30 minutes.
08 -
Scoop vanilla bean ice cream into 4 bowls. Top each with the baked apple slices and plenty of salty caramel sauce.
