Candied Apple Pops drenched in chocolate, drizzled with caramel sauce and topped with nuts are the perfect fall treat!
This Paleo twist on candy apples is an easy dessert you can make in less than 20 minutes! With zero dairy or refined sugar, it’s a treat you can feel good about eating.
Start by dipping sliced apples in melted dark chocolate (make sure the chocolate is dairy free and has no artificial sweeteners). Next, drizzle them with Paleo caramel sauce, then top with your favorite ingredients. We topped ours with chia seeds, chopped raisins, shredded coconut and pecans, but you can use any combination of your favorite toppings!

This recipe will work with any apple, but larger apples (like a Fuji) work best since they make the thickest slices and hold the ingredients well. Regardless of the type of apple you choose, be sure to remove any seeds before dipping them into the melted chocolate.
These apple pops keep in the fridge for one or two days. Enjoy them right away as a snack or dessert, or serve them at parties for a crowd-pleasing fall treat!
