Sink your teeth into some toffee apples this bonfire night with this sticky toffee apple recipe.
Time to prepare: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 20 minutes
Makes: 8
What You’ll Need:
- 500g Tate & Lyle Fairtrade Demerara sugar
- 75g butter
- 225g Lyle’s Golden Syrup
- 150ml water
- 2 tsp malt vinegar
- 8 medium apples, wiped
- Lollipop sticks
What To Do:
- Put the Tate & Lyle sugar, butter, Lyle’s Golden Syrup water and vinegar onto a large heavy based pan. Heat gently for about 5 minutes, stirring until the sugar had dissolved.
- Using a clean pastry brush, brush the inside of the pan with cold water just above the level of the mixture, then bring to the boil. Boil rapidly for 5-10 minutes or until the temperature reaches the soft crack stage or 143C.
- 3. Meanwhile push the wooden sticks into the centre of the apples. Place a sheet on parchment paper on a tray.
- 4. Remove the pan from the heat and allow the bubbles to settle. Dip the apples very carefully onto the toffee to coat well. Twirl each around a few seconds to allow the excess toffee to drip off and place on the paper to cool and harden.
