Introduction

Toffee apples are a classic treat that has been enjoyed for generations. They are perfect for autumn and Halloween parties, and they are easy to make. With a crunchy coating of caramelized sugar and a juicy apple inside, they are a perfect combination of sweetness and tartness. This recipe is simple and quick, and it will help you make perfect toffee apples every time.

Ingredients

To make toffee apples, you will need the following ingredients:
  • 6 medium-sized apples (Granny Smith or Red Delicious are great options)
  • 2 cups of granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup of water
  • 1/4 cup of light corn syrup
  • 1/4 teaspoon of red food coloring (optional)
  • 6 wooden skewers or popsicle sticks

Instructions

Follow these simple steps to make toffee apples:
  1. Wash and dry the apples thoroughly. Remove the stems and insert a wooden skewer or popsicle stick into the center of each apple.
  2. In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the sugar, water, and corn syrup. Stir until the sugar dissolves.
  3. Place the pan over medium-high heat and bring the mixture to a boil. Do not stir the mixture while it is cooking, as this can cause crystallization.
  4. Reduce the heat to medium and wait until the mixture reaches a temperature of 300°F on a candy thermometer. This should take about 10-15 minutes.
  5. Remove the pan from the heat and add the food coloring (if using). Stir until the color is evenly distributed.
  6. Dip each apple into the toffee mixture, making sure to coat it evenly. Hold the apple over the pan and allow the excess toffee to drip off.
  7. Place each apple on a sheet of parchment paper to cool and harden. This should take about 5-10 minutes.
  8. Once the toffee has hardened, you can serve the toffee apples immediately, or you can store them in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
