Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 6 Churro Bowls ((using this recipe))
  • 5 large apples ((red or granny smith -- your choice), diced into 1/2-inch pieces)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 1/4 cup water
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • pinch of nutmeg
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup thickened cream ((or heavy cream))

Instruction

  • Make Churro Bowls using this recipe.
  • While Churros are baking, prepare apple pie filing: combine apples into a medium-sized saucepan with the lemon juice. Mix well and set aside.
  • Whisk the cornstarch and water together until lump free. Pour the mixture into a medium-sized heavy based saucepan over medium heat. Quickly add in the brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg, and whisk again to combine. Bring to a boil while whisking continuously, until mixture begins to thicken. Add in the diced apple, give them a quick stir through the mixture; reduce heat down to low and cover pan with a lid. Allow to cook, covered, for about 8-10 minutes, while stirring occasionally, until soft. Apples should be soft but not mushy.
  • Take off the heat completely while covered with the lid, and allow to cool down to room temperature.
  • Fill each Churro Cup / Bowl with the apple pie filling; top with ice cream (optional), and drizzle with caramel sauce.
