Samoa Apple Slices

Granny Smith apples

c. jarred caramel

c. coconut flakes

c. semisweet chocolate chips

Slice apples into 1/4"-thick slices. Use a small biscuit cutter or melon baller to remove the core from the apples. Set aside.

In a medium-sized bowl, add caramel and coconut flakes, stirring to combine. Spoon caramel-coconut mixture onto each apple slice.

In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips and butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted. Drizzle melted chocolate on apple slices and serve.

Didn't make this, but this is only low carb if your goal is to stay under like 500 million a day. Why would they put that as the heading?

This is not a low carb recipe. I took the time to figure out all the carbs. This article makes me so mad. It claims to be low carb. Let’s think about this and figure it out. The original Girl Scouts cookies have 18 carbs for 2 cookies. So 9 carbs each. The “low carb” has at least 39.3 carbs each slice. Let’s see how I got this. The recipe calls for 3 Granny Smith apples(20 carbs each =60 carbs) 1 cup jarred caramel( each 1 ounce serving is 27 carbs for a total 216 carbs) 1 cup coconut flakes( each serving is 2 tbsp which is 8 carbs. 16 tbsp per cup so 8 servings times 8 carbs is 64 carbs) next 1/2 cup of semi seeet chocolate chips.(107.4 carbs in a. Cup so half that would be 53.7 carbs) so the total for the whole recipe is 393 carbs. This recipe makes 10 so that would be 39.3 carbs per slice. So the original cookies are 9 each! How is this low carb #delish . When the original 2 cookies have half the carbs as 1 of your slices! Ok sorry for all that but I just wanted to point this out when I read this article that it’s not low carb.

Definitely not low carb or diabetic friendly. Yes you can use sugar free caramel but the apple has natural sugar and is not low carb. 10 carbs is half a days worth. Maybe 2 carbs would be a good snack.

The caramel sauce has a lot of carbs.  Just that single ingredient, this is nowhere close to be low carb.

Sounds  awesome! I used to down a box of Samoa’s in one sitting when my daughter was a Girl Scout, so am looking forward to making this slightly healthier version.

😂 these are so not low carb. They sound like a delicious, but sugar and carb-filled, dessert. Now...if you substituted unsweetened coconut, Lily’s chocolate chips for melting, and Walden Farms caramel sauce, you could possibly call these sorta low carb. But the apples hike up the totals big time. All in all, I’d stay away from this as a low carb dessert.

This fall treat will get you through 'til your next Girl Scout cookie order.

These Apple Samoas Are Basically Lower-Cal Girl Scout Cookies!

A nostalgic county fair treat and an iconic BBQ side had a baby, and it's epic. Classic cornbread mix gets a serious upgrade when tender apples, cooked in a buttery homemade caramel sauce, are folded into the batter and baked right in. It comes together in under an hour with pantry staples and a handful of apples — a perfect weeknight treat or easy dessert for a crowd. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and an extra drizzle of caramel sauce for an indulgent finish.

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 9-inch square baking dish or cast-iron skillet with nonstick cooking spray.

Make the caramel apples: Melt the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the apples and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened, 3–4 minutes. Add the brown sugar, vanilla, and 1 tablespoon cinnamon, stirring to coat the apples evenly. Cook for another 3–4 minutes, until the apples are tender and the sugar has dissolved. Remove from the heat.

Make the cornbread batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the corn muffin mix, eggs, and milk until just combined.

Using a slotted spoon, transfer the cooked apples to the cornbread batter, leaving the sauce in the skillet. Gently fold the apples into the batter until evenly distributed.

Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread into an even layer. Sprinkle the top with the remaining ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon. Bake for 20–25 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Meanwhile, make the caramel sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water until smooth to make a slurry.

Return the skillet with the reserved sauce to medium heat and bring to a boil. Stir in the cornstarch slurry and cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce is bubbling and thickened, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.

Let the cornbread cool for 5 minutes, then slice and serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of the caramel sauce.
