Time 30m

Yield 32 candy apple slices

Number Of Ingredients 10

Cooking spray
2 cups sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
One 2-ounce box cinnamon candy
Few drops of red food coloring
Chopped peanuts
Shredded coconut
Assorted candies
2 firm apples, such as Jonathan or Fuji
2 firm Granny Smith Apples

Steps:

  • Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Spray a cookie sheet with cooking spray. Set aside.
  • In a medium saucepan, bring the sugar, 1/2 cup water and corn syrup to a boil. Cook to 250 degrees F, or until the syrup spins a thread when poured from the edge of a cooking spoon. Pour in the candy pieces and continue cooking to 285 degrees F. Remove from the heat and add the food coloring to achieve the desired shade of red.
  • Put the chopped nuts, coconut and candies in shallow bowls. Set aside. Wash the apples thoroughly. Remove the stems from the apples and insert a popsicle stick into the center of the bottom of each apple.
  • Dip the apples quickly in the candy mixture, twisting as you dip to cover the entire apple. Roll the apples in the assorted toppings, coating the bottom half of each apple. Place on the greased cookie sheet and allow the coating to cool and harden. Remove the popsicle sticks and use an apple slicer or a sharp serrated knife to cut the apples into slices. Place a toothpick in each slice.

OLD-FASHIONED RED CANDIED APPLES



Old-Fashioned Red Candied Apples image

These are the kind you found at the circus or carnival! Not the newer version covered with cramel. ;) Candy thermometer is needed for this, as well as popsicle sticks. The number of apples needed depends on the size of the apples, probably 4 medium ones. The recipe states that each batch candies approximately 1 dozen medium apples. I'm not sure I trust that. Cook time depends on your altitude where you live, heat of your burner, and pot used. NOTE: See review by Canada Goose for helpful hints! Thanks, CG!

Time 30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups sugar
1 cup water
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
red food coloring
apple

Steps:

  • Mix 1st 3 ingredients in saucepan.

  • Boil mixture until reaches hard crack (300ºF), then immediately add red food coloring and stir.

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: Use firm, crisp apples that will hold their shape well on a stick. Some good varieties include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Red Delicious.
  • Prepare the apples: Wash and dry the apples thoroughly. If desired, you can peel the apples or leave the skin on. Cut the apples into 1-inch thick slices.

  • Dip the apples in the caramel: Carefully dip each apple slice into the hot caramel, turning to coat all sides. Allow the excess caramel to drip off.
  • Add toppings: While the caramel is still wet, roll the apple slices in your favorite toppings, such as chopped nuts, sprinkles, or crushed candy canes.
  • Chill the apples: Place the caramel apples on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or until the caramel has hardened.
