Slow Cooker Caramel Apple Pie Dip has diced apples in a caramel sauce.
Pair with cinnamon sugar pie crust strips, sugar cookies, or graham crackers.
We love a good dip! This can either be a dessert or appetizer. Serve this along with another one of my appetizers such as Buffalo Chicken Dip or Garlic Butter Artichokes.
Since making this easy Slow Cooker Caramel Apple Pie dip, I may never make a regular apple pie again. All the flavors of apple pie in an easy dip! I’m all about easy meals and desserts lately.
How to make Caramel Apple Pie Dip:
- Add diced apples to the slow cooker.
- Add cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Stir.
- Make a cornstarch slurry with cornstarch and water.
- Add the cornstarch slurry and caramel to the apples. Stir.
- Place the lid on the slow cooker and cook on high for 2 hours.
What should I serve this Apple Pie Dip with?
- Bake pie strips with refrigerated pie dough (sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar).
- Serve with sugar cookies or graham crackers.
- Serve over ice cream if desired.
What can I do with the leftovers?
- Place in the fridge, this will last about 3 days.
- Microwave and serve.
- Note, the cooked pie strips don’t carry over to the next day well, they get stale quickly. Use sugar cookies or graham crackers for serving leftovers. (Or put on ice cream).

Can you use Ghiradelli caramel sea salt premium sauce for this recipe
Mine came out super runny-huge bummer
Town House has cinnamon sugar pita chips available this time of year, think I am going to try those, but will have cinnamon graham crackers on back up! So excited to try this recipe!!
Made this for a gathering last weekend. Sooo delicious, everyone loved it! I did add several extra cups of apples, and ginger and cloves; gave it more of a mulled cider taste. I used a cookie cutter on the pie crust to make cute little leaves too. This is one of my new favorites! Thank you!
I am thinking of using cinnamon gram crackers instead of the pie dough strips
Whatever you do, don’t overheat it – I came back after 2 hours and the caramel had completely separated to give a watery, clumpy sugar that the apples were just floating in…not good.
I have directions to make caramel sauce by heating a can of sweetened condensed milk in a slow cooker. Haven’t tried it yet. (Almost afraid I’d eat the whole can myself! LOL) I also found directions online to make my own sweetened condensed milk.
Sweetened Condensed Milk
Online, 12/22/14 from Paula Deen
Total Time:
8 min
Prep:
5 min
Cook:
3 min
Yield:
14 ounces
Level:
Easy
Ingredients
1/3 cup boiling water
4 tablespoons butter
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup powdered milk (recommended: Carnation)
Directions
Using an electric mixer, blend together water, butter, sugar, and vanilla.
Add powdered milk and blend until thick. Store in refrigerator for up to 1 week.
I made some homemade caramel but it got thinner after apples cooked. Solution: I added Clear Jel a teaspoon at a time until I got the desired consistency. I also cooked my pie crust in custard cups which made the perfect sized personal pies served hot and ala mode w/ a nice crispy flaky crust.
This Would be good using cinnamon tortilla chips, soft tortillas, dip in melted butter, sprinkle cinnamon sugar on them then bake till crisp. Cut with a pizza cutter into 8 pieces.
That sounds delicious Risa!
Is it ok to bake the pie crust first and then let sit out for s few hours before I serve it?
Yes! A few hours would be fine, but overnight they get soggy. 🙂
Could you use caramel candy squares to put in instead of the jar stuff?
