Ingredients
- 4 granny smith apples, peeled with the stem on
- 3 cups of sugar
- 2 vanilla beans, split and scraped
- 4 cinnamon sticks
- 2 quarts of water
- Juice of one lemon
Directions
In a roomy one gallon pot place peeled apples, vanilla, cinnamon and sugar. Cover with water then bring to a simmer over medium to low heat for twenty minutes. Once the apples are soft enough, pierce with a knife. Remove the apples with a slotted spoon to a holding plate. Reduce poaching liquid to a light syrup, then place the apples back in sauce pot and hold on warm until ready to serve.
Use four small serving bowls with matching underliner plates then place one apple in the middle of each bowl. Pour warm syrup over each apple and then garnish cinnamon sticks and vanilla beans

This recipe never said what to do with or when to add the lemon juice. Granted some people may know but I venture to guess, someone hunting for this simpla a recipe wouldn't (i.e. like me :_(
I'll make the best of it but it shows poor planning and review of Food network staff.

I made this dish for Thanksgiving dessert. I didnt exactly have syrup at the end, but I poured the "syrup" over the apples. I topped it with homemade whipped Cream, and (store boughtVanilla Ice Cream. My family absolutely LOVED it. And I'm ordered to make it again for Christmas!!
