APPLE SORBET WITH CARAMELIZED APPLES

Steps:

• Peel, halve and core the Golden Delicious or McIntosh apples; toss them with 2 tblsps of the lemon juice to coat; crush the apples in a juice extractor, reserving the juice and pulp separately; stir 5 tblsps of the sugar and the spices into the apple juice; pour the syrup into an ice cream maker and freeze according to the manufacturer’s instructions until the sorbet is firm but not grainy, about 20 minutes; transfer the sorbet to a freezer container and freeze while you proceed or for up to 4 hours.
• Meanwhile, in a medium nonreactive saucepan, combine the reserved apple pulp and the remaining 2 tblsps lemon juice and 4 tblsps sugar with 1 ½ cups of water; bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook, stirring, until smooth, about 2 minutes; strain the liquid into a medium heatproof bowl and let cool; peel, quarter and core 2 of the Granny Smith apples; cut lengthwise into very thin slices; add the apples to the strained liquid.
• Preheat the oven to 325F; peel and core the remaining Granny Smith apple; slice it crosswise into 1/8-inch rings; place the rings on a nonstick baking sheet or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or silpat and bake for about 8 minutes, or until lightly-browned; sprinkle the rings with the confectioners’ sugar, place under the broiler and broil for about 30 seconds or until the sugar melts; let cool completely, then transfer to the freezer while you proceed.
• To serve, scoop some of the sliced Granny Smith apples with their liquid into chilled dessert bowls; dollop the sorbet on top; garnish with the caramelized apple rings.

CARAMELIZED APPLES

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
• Add the apples to the pan and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar.
• Sauté the apples, stirring frequently, for 6-8 minutes, until they just start to turn tender.
• Sprinkle the apples with the remaining sugar, cinnamon, and lemon zest.
• Toss the mixture gently and cook over medium heat for an additional 2 minutes, until the sugar begins to caramelize and the apples are crisp-tender.
• Transfer the apples from the skillet to a serving bowl with a slotted spoon.
• Turn the heat to high and add the apple cider to the skillet, scraping up any browned bits.
• Reduce the heat slightly and allow the cider and the pan juices to simmer for 1-3 minutes, until the sauce has reduced and thickened slightly.
• If you desire a thicker sauce, dissolve the cornstarch in a teaspoon of water, stir it into the sauce, and allow it to thicken for a moment.
• Pour the finished sauce over the warm apples and serve immediately.

GREEN APPLE SORBET

Steps:

• Cut, core and coarsely slice the apples.
• Place the apples in a saucepan along with lemon juice, sugar, and apple juice.
• Boil for approximately 3 to 5 minutes or until soft.
• Remove the green apple mixture from heat and cool.
• Place in a blender or food processor and puree the green apple mixture until smooth.
• Strain and transfer to a small container. Stir in green food coloring, mix well and place the green apple sorbet mixture in the freezer.
• This can be made two days before.
• When the green apple sorbet is completely frozen, remove from the freezer and place in a food processor or blender and puree again.
• Return to the freezer until ready to use.

THE BEST CARAMEL APPLES

Steps:

• Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Dip apples in boiling water for a few seconds, then dry with paper towels to remove any wax from the peels. Set apples aside; when completely cool, insert a wooden chopstick firmly into the bottom of each apple for a handle.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Stir butter, brown sugar, corn syrup, and sweetened condensed milk together in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, and reduce heat to medium. Cook until a candy thermometer reads 248 degrees F (120 degrees C), 25 to 30 minutes; stir constantly to prevent burning. A teaspoon of the syrup, dropped in a glass of cold water, should form a firm ball. Remove caramel from heat and stir in vanilla extract.
• Working quickly, dip each apple into the hot caramel to completely coat the apple and about 1/2 inch of the wooden handle. Sprinkle apples with any desired toppings while still hot. Let caramel apples cool on the parchment paper. Use caution, caramel is very hot.

APPLE AND HONEY SORBET

Steps:

• In a large, resealable plastic bag or plastic container with a lid, mix apples with the juice of 1/2 lemon. Freeze for several hours or overnight.
• In a small saucepan, bring water and sugar to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in honey. Cool completely.
• Place apple in a blender, and liquidize them with juice of 1 lemon and the cooled sugar syrup until as smooth as possible. The peel will add texture, and prevent the mixture from being completely smooth.
• Transfer the mixture to an ice cream machine and freeze according to directions. Leave the sorbet out to soften 10 minutes prior to serving.
