Recipe For Toffee Apples On Bonfire Night

What you will need :- 8 Granny Smith apples, 400g of golden caster sugar, 1 tsp of vinegar, 4tbsp of golden syrup.
This will only take 20 mins. To start cover the apples in boiling water, and remove the waxy coating, this helps the toffee stick. Dry the apples and push a wooden skewer into the end of the apples. Place the apples on greaseproof paper on a metal tray. Keep the tray close to your oven hob. Tip the sugar into the pan along with 100ml of water and place on a medium heat, until the sugar dissolves. Stir in the vinegar and syrup. Place a thermometer in a pan and boil at 140c. As most of us do not have a thermometer, so to check it is ready, pour a little toffee into a bowl of water, if it hardens instantly and is brittle when removed, that will be perfect. Next take each apple and cover in hot toffee and place back on your tray to cool. They should be eaten within two days . That is not normaly an issue.  Enjoy
