Nothing says fall quite like a candy apple. The thought brings up memories of fall leaves, pumpkins, hay rides, the New York State Fair, flea markets, hot apple cider, apple pie and trips to Vermont for leaf-peeping and more – all the things I love about fall.
I never liked the red coating myself, so as a kid I would choose caramel (OK, as an adult, too!). This caramel apple recipe is so easy that you can make them at home. No need to wait for a fair or carnival or fall festival. If you're nut free, just skip the nut coating. They're delicious either way. You will need 12 craft sticks for this recipe.
