Cinnamon Candied Apples

SUBMITTED BY: angie Marguart

"For years, we enjoyed baked cinnamon apples at Christmas when my great-grandmother made them. When she passed away, no one could find the recipe. I eventually came across this stovetop version and have continued her tradition. --Angie Marquart, Mt. Gilead, Ohio"

The flavor of these apples were super! However, the sauce never thickened up, and there was way too much of it. I have come across another recipe that did not call for any water.. just using the apples and red-hots. The juice from the apples gives it enough moisture. I think that is how I may try these the next time.
