Dulce de leche Apple Wontons

I know it's technically Pumpkin season, but I've always been more of an apple girl.  Those are coming into their own too, and I love nothing more then a good apple pie.

I wanted to make something a little more portable, and also something that would be great for a party.  These are so delicious!  Crispy, creamy, sugary with just a little bit of tart.  This is my new favorite make to take!



Ingredients:

3 Granny Smith Apples
3 Gala Apples
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 cup Dulce de leche
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoons cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon Cardamon
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 tablespoon all purpose flour
46 wonton wrappers
1/4 cup Wildtree Natural Grapeseed Oil

Method of Prep:

Core and peal apples, and dice into 1/2 inch chunks.  Place apples in a large mixing bowl and toss with lemon juice.  Add sugar, spices and flour and mix well with your hands making sure all apples are covered and mixture is incorporated fully.



Line a slow cooker with foil and put 1/3 mixture in the bottom.  Add 1/3 cup of Ducle De Leche. Add the second 1/3 mixture of apples and follow again with Dulce De Leche.  Continue with last of apples and top with last of Ducle De Leche.  Cover and cook on high for an hour.  With a spoon stir your apple pie mixture.  Taste for firmness.  Some may like it more mushy or with more of a crunch.  I think I ended up cooking mine about an hour and a half, but I could have stopped at an hour.

While your apples are cooking pre-heat oven to 400 and brush wontons with Grapeseed Oil on both sides,  Gently press them into a mini muffin pan, forming a cup.

Bake for 5-10 minutes.  Keep an eye on them because they can burn quick,and all ovens are different.  When they start turning golden brown they are done.  Mine were perfect at 7 minutes. You can also sprinkle them with sugar and cinnamon before they bake.  I chose not to do this because the mixture is already so sweet.

You can pour your Dulce de leche apples into a bowl and place your wontons around it, creating a make your own apple pie bar.  Hell you can keep the apple mixture in the crock pot to keep it all warm and ooey gooey and hot.  Warm apple pie on demand?  Yes please!

There are lots of things you can set out with it too.  Crumble topping, nuts, and whipped cream are just a few things I can think of off the top of my head.  It's just so. good.
