HOMEMADE TOFFEE APPLES



Homemade toffee apples image

Nothing beats the crunch of a toffee apple on a crisp autumnal evening, and these taste so much better than shop bought

Provided by Emma Lewis

Categories     Snack, Treat

Time 20m

Yield Makes 8

Number Of Ingredients 4

8 Granny Smith apples
400g golden caster sugar
1 tsp vinegar
4 tbsp golden syrup

Steps:

  • Place the apples in a large bowl, then cover with boiling water (you may have to do this in 2 batches). This will remove the waxy coating and help the caramel to stick. Dry thoroughly and twist off any stalks. Push a wooden skewer or lolly stick into the stalk end of each apple.
  • Lay out a sheet of baking parchment and place the apples on this, close to your stovetop. Tip the sugar into a pan along with 100ml water and set over a medium heat. Cook for 5 mins until the sugar dissolves, then stir in the vinegar and syrup. Set a sugar thermometer in the pan and boil to 150C or 'hard crack' stage. If you don't have a thermometer you can test the toffee by pouring a little into a bowl of cold water. It should harden instantly and, when removed, be brittle and easy to break. If you can still squish the toffee, continue to boil it.
  • Working quickly and carefully, dip and twist each apple in the hot toffee until covered, let any excess drip away, then place on the baking parchment to harden. You may have to heat the toffee a little if the temperature drops and it starts to feel thick and viscous. Leave the toffee to cool before eating. Can be made up to 2 days in advance, stored in a dry place.

TOFFEE APPLES

Provided by Elaine Lemm

Categories     Snack     Dessert     Candy

Time 20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 1/3 cups golden caster sugar (or very fine granulated sugar)
1/2 cup warm water
2 tablespoons liquid glucose
1 teaspoon white vinegar
8 apples (small, red)
Boiling water
1/2 teaspoon red food coloring

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Place the sugar, warm water, glucose, and vinegar in a large saucepan. Gently heat, while stirring, to dissolve the sugar, but make sure not to bring to a boil at this stage.
  • Once all the sugar has dissolved, raise the heat and bring the toffee to a rolling boil. Using a candy thermometer , boil to 270 F/140 C. This can take 10 to 20 minutes. If you do not have a candy thermometer, take a cup of cold water and once the toffee has started to thicken, drop a little of the toffee into the cold water. The toffee should solidify as it hits the water, and when you remove it from the water, the toffee threads should still be slightly flexible, not brittle. If the toffee is soft, continue to cook.
  • While the toffee is boiling, place the apples in a large bowl and cover with boiling water. Leave for a few minutes, then remove from the water and rub the apples with a tea towel and dry thoroughly. (The hot water and the rubbing will remove any waxy surface from the apple.) Once dried, remove the apple stems and push a chopstick or lollipop stick into the hole.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper .
  • Once the toffee is ready, remove from the heat and leave to stand for 5 minutes to let the bubbles subside. (It is important to wait until all the bubbling calms down to create a smooth surface on the apples.) Once the bubbles have stopped, add the food coloring and stir gently.
  • Working quickly, tilt the pan slightly and dip the apples into the toffee; twirl around to completely coat the apple. Lift the apple from the pan and allow any excess toffee to drain away. Stand the toffee apple onto the lined baking sheet and leave to set around 20 minutes, or longer if possible.
  • If the toffee starts to thicken and harden as you are coating the apples, place the pot back on the heat and warm through, but do not boil. If you are not eating the toffee apples right away, wrap in cellophane.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use fresh, tart apples. Granny Smith apples are a classic choice for toffee apple crunch, but you can use any variety of tart apple that you like. The tartness of the apples will help to balance out the sweetness of the toffee sauce.
  • Make sure the apples are evenly coated in the toffee sauce. This will help to ensure that the apples are evenly caramelized and that the toffee sauce doesn't pool at the bottom of the dish.
  • Don't overcook the toffee sauce. The toffee sauce should be thick and golden brown, but it shouldn't be too dark or bitter. Overcooked toffee sauce will be difficult to spread and will have a burnt flavor.
  • Serve the toffee apple crunch warm. The toffee sauce will harden as it cools, so it's best to serve the crunch while it's still warm and gooey.

Conclusion:

Toffee apple crunch is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It's a great way to use up leftover apples, and it's also a fun and festive treat for Halloween or Thanksgiving. With its sweet and tart flavors, toffee apple crunch is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
