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!

THE BEST RED CANDY APPLES



The Best Red Candy Apples image

These are awesome. The candy is really crunchy and easy to eat. They remind you of the fair. I use Granny Smith Apples because it's the perfect combination of tart and sweet. You don't taste the lemon juice at all, but it give the candy the perfect flavor.

Categories     Fruit Tarts

Time 1h15m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

10 medium apples - peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
1 medium lemon, zested and juiced
½ cup walnuts, finely chopped
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ cup white sugar
1 ¼ sticks unsalted butter, softened
1 large egg
1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
⅓ cup apricot jam
¼ cup cognac

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a small cookie sheet.
  • Mix apple slices with lemon juice in a bowl. Stir lemon zest, walnuts, and cinnamon together in a separate bowl.
  • Mix sugar and butter together in another bowl. Mix in egg, followed by flour until a dough forms.
  • Spread dough over the prepared cookie sheet with your hands. It will be thin. Sprinkle walnut mixture evenly over the dough and press it in with your hands. Arrange the apple slices over top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
  • While the tart is baking, heat the apricot jam in microwave or stovetop until it reaches a liquid consistency, about 1 minute.
  • Remove the tart from the oven and brush it with warmed jam. Return to the oven and bake until golden and set, 15 to 20 more minutes.
  • To serve, pour cognac into a ladle, carefully light with a match, and pour over the whole tart. The alcohol will burn off.
