Vintage Candied Apples

 

INGREDIENTS

• 6-8 apples, peeled and sliced
• 1 (5.5 oz) box Red Hots
• 1 1/2 cups water

Optional: vanilla ice cream for serving

PREPARATION

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Add apple slices to a glass 9×13-inch baking dish and spread into an even layer.
Sprinkle red hots over the apples, then pour the water all over the dish.
Bake apples for 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes to evenly dissolve the red hots.
