recipes everyone will love!
In honor of Johnny Appleseed Day here are two easy (and tasty) apple treats to make with your kids.
Cinnamon Apples
6 or 7 apples
1 cup water
1/2 - 3/4 cup red hots candy
2 cup sugar
Peel and core apples and then cut into slices: 4 – 8 per apple. Set aside.
Heat water, sugar and red hots candy in a large saucepan until red hots melt – stirring often.
Lower heat and add apples to syrup, turning frequently to coat well.
Once the apple slices are tender, remove from pan to cool before eating.
