For the filling:
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour

- 8 cups thinly sliced peeled tart apples (about 8 medium)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/4 cup butter or margarine

Instructions
For the crust:
- In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

For the filling:
- In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, flour, cinnamon and nutmeg; set aside.
- In a large bowl, toss apples with lemon juice. Add sugar mixture; toss to coat.
- Pour into crust-lined pie plate. Dot with butter. Roll out remaining pastry; make a lattice crust. Seal and flute edges.
- Bake at 375° for 45 minutes or until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly.
- In a small saucepan, melt caramels with water over low heat; drizzle over pie. Cool on a wire rack.
There you have it! A delicious and impressive caramel apple pie that will have your guests begging for seconds. Enjoy!
Additional Tips
If you find that the crust is browning too quickly, cover the edges with aluminum foil to prevent burning. You can also experiment with different types of apples – some great options include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Jonathan varieties. And if you want to make the pie even more decadent, try serving it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top!
