Why? Because they're full of nutrients and vitamins that will help you live long.
Being "caramel apples", they clearly consist of an apple being covered in caramel. All I did was change my definition of caramel!
In the raw food world, my caramel is dates, water and spices.
I covered a couple organic apples in that, and chopped up some fresh pecans and threw them on one (I put peanuts on the other). For the final touch, I drizzled on a simple chocolate sauce.
These are way better than your regular caramel apples not ONLY in taste, but also because you feel good after eating them; NOT GUILTY.
Food is love, love is happiness, and happiness depends on health.
I wanted to get a few photos with a bite out of an apple, so I had an excuse to try them =) I took a big, messy, caramel-apple bite... literally stopped chewing and said "oh my god no freaking way" out loud in the kitchen by myself.
I talk to myself a lot.
But with good reason! These taste ridonkulous. And I don't say ridonkulous, so you know they're gotta be nuts (no pun intended). Really though - try these out and share them with your loved ones. Everybody will appreciate it. They're a great Valentines Day present, heeey?
I was noble today and gave mine to Dad after taking a few bites. It took a bit of will power but I HAD to share it with someone, it was so delicious. I only made two, so I'm saving the other one for my brother Greg.

How to Prepare Raw Caramel Apples [Vegan]
- Blend dates with coconut oil, cinnamon, salt, mesquite and water to get a smooth, thick consistency. You can add more sweetener if you want. Cover the apples completely with the "caramel" and then dip them in the chopped nuts so they stick.
- Then mix the cacao, sweetener of choice, nut butter and coconut oil until smooth. Drizzle it all over the apples.
Excellent!
