Sticky Toffee Apples

Toffee ApplesSink 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.
