Caramel Apple Ring
Yield: 30 servings Prep Time: 1 hour and 30 minutes Dough: Apple Cinnamon Filling: Dough: Combine 1 cup flour, sugar, undissolved yeast and salt in a large bowl. Heat water, milk and butter until very warm (120º to 130ºF). Gradually add to flour mixture. Beat 2 minutes at medium speed of electric mixer, scraping bowl occasionally. Stir in enough remaining flour to make a soft dough. Knead on lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 8 to 10 minutes. Cover; let rest 10 minutes. Apple Cinnamon Filling: Combine apples, flour, brown sugar, butter and KARO Corn Syrup in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook 3 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook 10 minutes, stirring constantly, until thick. Stir in DURKEE Cinnamon. Cool completely. Roll dough to 20 x 12-inch rectangle; spread evenly with Apple Cinnamon Filling. Beginning at long end, roll up tightly as for jelly roll. Pinch seam to seal; join ends together to form a ring. Place, seam side down, on greased baking sheet. Cut 2/3 through ring at 1-inch intervals. Twist each section sideways to expose filling. Cover; let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 1 hour. Preheat oven to 350ºF. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from sheet; cool slightly on wire rack. Drizzle with caramel topping; serve warm. |
