I created Sweet Revolution Maple Honey Caramels because I wanted to be able to indulge in a candy without feeling the ill effects of corn syrup or cane sugar. Being fairly allergic to one and awfully allergic to the other fueled my determination to recreate the traditional caramel.
Preheat the oven to 400F. Roll out your favorite pie dough. Line it in a small stainless skillet (all-clad 8″ is useful). Heat up 2 heaping T of Sweet Revolution Caramel Spread (microwave for 10 sec) and smear on the bottom of the pie crust. Fill the pie with slices of Green apples (with peel intact), sliced fresh figs, and whole raspberries. Grate 1/2 t of lemon zest over. Bake for 25 – 30 minutes. Towards the end of the baking process – make a little tent of aluminum foil for the pie to guard the fruit from becoming browned. A little tent should not cover the pie entirely. Enjoy!
A slice of pie made with sliced peaches, sliced fresh figs, and whole raspberries. Before the fruit was added, the bottom of the pie was smeared with 2 heaping T of warmed up Sweet Revolution Caramel Spread. In the bowl that held the SR Caramel Spread, add a bit of cream and brush this mixture on the top crust. Bake at 400F for 25 to 30 min.
I have substituted the fresh figs and raspberries with sliced fresh lychee nut when available or with fresh kumquat slices when in season.
