How to Make Red Apples On A Stick
- Wash and thoroughly dry 6 medium-sized red apples. Remove stems.
- Carefully insert a wooden skewer into the stem end of each apple.
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup light corn syrup, and 1/4 cup water.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Reduce heat to low and continue to cook, without stirring, until the syrup reaches the soft-ball stage (a small amount of syrup dropped into ice water forms a soft ball that flattens slightly when removed). This takes approximately 10-15 minutes. Test frequently.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract (or your preferred flavoring) and a few drops of red food coloring, if using. Stir gently to combine.
- Holding each apple by the skewer, carefully swirl it in the hot syrup, tilting the pan to coat the apple completely. Work quickly and efficiently.
- Remove the apple from the syrup, allowing excess to drip off. Then, gently swirl the apple to evenly distribute the syrup.
- Place the coated apples on a lightly buttered baking sheet to cool completely. The syrup will harden as it cools.
