How to Make Red Cinnamon Apple Rings
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of water, 1 cup of granulated sugar, 10-12 cinnamon candies (or 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon), and a few drops of red food coloring. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes, allowing the syrup to thicken slightly.
- While the syrup simmers, peel, core, and slice 4-6 medium apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp) into 1/2-inch thick rings.
- Gently place the apple rings in the simmering syrup, ensuring they are mostly submerged.
- Cover the saucepan and cook for 30-40 minutes, or until the apples are tender but still hold their shape, gently flipping halfway through.
- Remove the apple rings from the syrup with a slotted spoon and place them on a wire rack or baking sheet to cool slightly. Serve warm or at room temperature. Drizzle with extra syrup, if desired.
