Ingredients
- A total of 8 crisp Granny Smith apples for picking
- 8 sturdy wooden sticks for crafting
- A generous 16-ounce package of rich brown sugar
- A delightful ⅔ cup of dark corn syrup
- A refreshing ¾ cup of water for blending
- 2 tablespoons of smooth bourbon whiskey for an extra kick
Step 1
To prepare this delightful treat, start by gently inserting wooden sticks about 3/4 of the way into the stem end of each apple. Next, arrange the apples on a baking sheet lined with lightly greased aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Step 2
In a spacious saucepan, mix together sugar, corn syrup, and water, then heat the mixture over medium-high heat until it reaches a boil. Lower the heat to medium-low and allow the mixture to simmer until it reaches a temperature of 290 degrees F (143 degrees C) on a thermometer. Once ready, remove the saucepan from the heat and add a splash of bourbon for extra flavor if desired.
Step 3
Keep the saucepan on low heat to maintain the caramel's liquid consistency for dipping the apples. With swift movements, carefully dip each apple into the warm caramel, ensuring it is evenly coated. Finally, place the caramel-coated apples back on the greased aluminum foil to cool and allow the caramel to set into a delicious, crunchy coating. Enjoy this sweet and satisfying treat!
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. To keep your bourbon-infused candy apples fresh and delicious, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. This will help preserve their flavor and prevent them from becoming too sticky.
- 2. If you want to add a decorative touch to your storage, consider using a glass jar with a rustic wooden lid. This will not only keep your candy apples fresh but also add a charming look to your kitchen.
