Crisp apple slices coated in caramelized sugar, thyme, and finishing salt for a delightful treat.

# Ingredients You’ll Need:

→ Main Components

01 - 2 Pink Lady apples
02 - 400 grams white sugar
03 - 15 millilitres finishing salt
04 - 20 millilitres fresh thyme leaves

# How to Make It:

01 - Place apples on their sides on a cutting board and slice into 6-millimetre thick rounds using a chef’s knife. Remove seeds with cooking tweezers as necessary.
02 - Position a cooling rack over a baking sheet. Lay apple slices on the rack, ensuring at least 1.5 centimetres space between each slice.
03 - Add white sugar to a saucepan and heat over medium-high, stirring continuously with a rubber spatula until fully melted and golden, approximately 5–7 minutes.
04 - Carefully spoon melted sugar over each apple slice. After coating three slices, sprinkle a pinch of finishing salt and thyme leaves. Continue until all slices are covered.
05 - Allow candied apple slices to cool on the rack for several minutes until the sugar hardens, then serve.

# Extra Tips:

01 - Use a different apple variety if preferred; adjust cooling time based on sugar thickness.
