Recipe type: Sweets, Candy, Halloween
Serves: 6-12 apples
Ingredients
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • ¾ cups water
  • ½ cup liquid glucose/light corn syrup
  • few drops black gel food colouring
  • 6 Granny Smith apples (or 12 small apples) (Ensure your apples are fresh and haven't been waxed)
Instructions
  1. Grease a piece of baking paper and place on a tray/baking sheet.
  2. Insert bamboo skewers in all the apples and set aside.
  3. In a medium pot, combine the sugar, water, glucose/corn syrup and food colouring and stir over medium heat until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture feels smooth when you rub it between your fingers.
  4. When the sugar has dissolved, turn the heat up and wash the sides of the pot down with a pastry brush dipped into clean water to prevent crystals from forming.
  5. Allow the caramel to boil until it reaches the hard crack stage (150°c/310°F).
  6. Carefully dip the apples into the hot candy mixture and place on the baking paper to set and cool for approximately an hour before serving.

Ingredients: 
(Note quantities not added. This will vary depending on how many you plan to make. It’s safe to estimate about 2-3 per person.)

White or Wheat Bread
Bacon
Shredded Cheddar Cheese
Eggs
Butter Maple Syrup
Salt & Pepper

Directions:

Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees.
While the oven is preheating partially cook the bacon for about 3-5 minutes in a large skillet set to medium-high. You want the bacon to be a little cooked but still pliable.

Mix maple syrup and butter in a small sauce pan and heat over medium low so butter melts (you can’t mess this up so don’t worry about amounts too much. I usually use ½ a stick of butter and a cup or so of syrup).

Using a cookie cutter, ravioli cutter, or whatever else you may have that can cut a 3 inch diameter circle—cut circles out of the bread slices. Here comes the good part!

Grease/non-stick spray muffin pan and line with bacon so that is circles each mold.

Now, brush each side of the bread with the syrup/butter mixture and place in cup so that it rests evenly at the bottom of the mold.

You may have to do a little trimming of the bread but it’s ok if it doesn't fit perfectly either.

Crack an egg into each mold, season with salt and pepper and give each cup a sprinkle of cheese (you can also add the cheese on top of bread, beneath the egg).
