How Do I Prevent Apples From Turning Brown?
There’s two quick options:

- Lemon lime soda.
Soak the sliced apples in a bowl of either or to prevent the apples from turning brown. Be sure to dry the apples completely so that the caramel can stick to the apples. Any moisture will not allow the caramel to soak into the apple.

How to Make Sheet Pan Caramel Apples
Spray a cookie sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
Slice SweeTangoยฎ Apples. Dry them thoroughly with paper towels. Arrange evenly on a baking sheet.
Place caramel bits (or unwrapped caramel squares) in a bowl with the heavy cream. Melt in the microwave in 30 second intervals until smooth.
Pour the hot caramel over the apple slices. Carefully spread the caramel out until all the apple slices are evenly coated.
Let caramel cool slightly. Then, top with your favorite toppings.
Serve when caramel is cool and solid, and enjoy!
How to Store Leftover Caramel Apples
These must be kept in the refrigerator. If not, the caramel becomes super runny and inedible. However, be sure to note that the apples will release moisture in the refrigerator. They will still taste the same, however, the caramel does become a little bit runny.
