I’ve never met a salted caramel anything I wouldn’t eat.  I found Fleur de Sel Caramel Sauce at Trader Joe’s last week.  So I grabbed it, natch.

I’ve had this pie crust in the fridge begging to be baked.  So last night, I relented.

Here is the result…

Back to the business of pie!

The crust is the same from this post.

Roll it out to about  1/4″ thick.  Cut in to “pop tart” sized rectangles.  Cut one and use it as your template for the rest.
