Red Cinnamon Apples




Here is our next entry into our Halloween Recipe Contest.  We only have 5 days left for entries and then I will narrow down the contest to my 5 favorite recipes and open up the voting for everyone to vote on their favorite recipe.  So if anyone has a recipe that they would like to enter, remember to get it to my by midnight on the 20th of October and you will have a chance to win.

1 cup water
1/2 corn syrup
1 cup sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon flavoring
1 tsp. red coloring
1 dozen wood craft sticks
1 dozen small, firm apples

Boil water, syrup, and sugar together until a brown caramel color is reached (at about 250 degrees F on a candy thermometer). Remove from the heat and add cinnamon and red coloring. Cool slightly. Meanwhile force a stick into the core of each apple. Dip the apples 1 at a time into the heavy red syrup, drain well, and place on a buttered baking sheet to cool.

This recipe was entered by Jami.  Thank you Jami for your second recipe, this gets you extra entries into our drawing.  Good luck once again.

**It has come to my attention that this recipe has come from another website.  To see the original recipe go over to the Food Network.  Thank you.

  1. This recipe and picture is directly from Paula Deen's recipe as seen on the Food Network's page. So, copying word for word, and entering other people's recipes, claiming as your own makes you eligible for the contest?

  2. The contest rules state that I wanted people to enter their favorite Halloween Recipes. I never said they had to come up with them on their own. I want people to share what they like to use for Halloween recipes.
    I only state where the recipe came from when the person entering it has supplied it to me, also I only state that it is their own if they tell me it is their own.
    I don't expect people to come up with their own recipes to enter my contest. I am just trying to put together a nice list of Halloween recipes that people like to use. I do hope that they have tried the recipe before and that they actually do like it. This happens to be one that Jami likes to use.
    Thank you for the link to the original post on food network though. That is greatly appreciated and will be added to the post.
