For a deeper caramel flavor, consider simmering the condensed milk for an extra 30-60 minutes. If you don't have Granny Smith apples, other tart varieties like Honeycrisp or Braeburn work well. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra-indulgent treat.

Follow The Directions
01
StepCaramelize the Condensed Milk: Place the unopened can of sweetened condensed milk in a large pot. Cover it completely with water. Bring to a gentle simmer and maintain for 3 hours, replenishing hot water as needed to keep the can submerged. (3 hours)
02
StepCool the Caramel: Carefully remove the can from the water using tongs and let it cool completely before opening (about 20 minutes).
03
StepPrepare the Apple Base: In a large bowl, combine the sliced apples with 1 tablespoon of flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Toss gently to coat. Transfer the apple mixture to a 9x13-inch baking pan.
04
StepAdd Vanilla Water: In a separate small bowl, stir the vanilla extract into the water. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the apples.
05
StepDrizzle Caramel: Once the caramel is cool enough to handle, carefully open the can. Stir the caramelized milk until smooth and drizzle it evenly over the apple mixture.
06
StepMake the Crumble Topping: In a medium bowl, combine the oats, 1 cup flour, brown sugar, baking soda, and salt. Add the melted butter and mix until the mixture forms coarse crumbs.
07
StepAssemble and Bake: Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the caramel-covered apples. Bake in a preheated oven until the apples are tender and the crumble is golden brown (about 25 minutes).
