Home-made toffee apples
A delicious festive dessert for Bonfire Night
- Preparation: 15 mins
- Cooking: 10 mins
- Serves: 4
What you need:
- 300g caster sugar
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds or 35g pecan nuts, chopped - optional
- 2 apples, cored and cut into 8s
What you do:
- Prepare the apples and pierce each with a cocktail stick. Line a tray with baking parchment.
- Very gently, dissolve the sugar in a large pan. Don't stir with a spoon, just move the pan with a swirling motion to move the sugar around. Once it has dissolved, bubble until you have a golden brown caramel. Add the sesame or pecans if using.
- Working quickly, dip each piece of apple into the caramel, coating them evenly. Place onto the baking parchment. If the caramel becomes a little sticky, just warm it over a low heat until it loosens a little.
- Serve immediately with Kelly's Cornish Clotted Cream ice-cream.
