1/2 c. red hots candy
1/2 c. brown sugar
1/3 c. water
8 lg. apples, quartered & peeled
2 tbsp. lemon juice

Simmer candy, sugar and water very gently until most of the candy dissolves. Add lemon juice and dash of salt. Arrange quarters in single layer around pan. Pour syrup mixture over apples being sure to coat top side.

Cook at 350 degrees for 40 to 45 minutes. Be careful not to over cook or apples will fall apart. Store in the refrigerator in plastic container. The longer you keep them the better they taste.
