Apple Selection: Choose firm, tart apples like Granny Smith for balance against the sweet caramel.
Pie Crust Preparation: Use a traditional pie crust, ensuring it's fully baked and cooled before adding the filling.
Caramel Sauce: Make or buy a rich caramel sauce to drizzle over the apples for sweetness and depth of flavor.
Apple Filling: Toss sliced apples with sugar, cinnamon, and a bit of flour to absorb excess moisture and create a thick filling.
Assembly: Layer the caramel sauce and apple filling into the pie crust, ensuring even distribution for every slice.
Baking and Serving: Bake the pie until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbling.
