Description
Craft Enchanted Golden Apples
This project restores the original Minecraft crafting recipe for Enchanted Golden Apples (also often called Notch/God Apples), which was removed back in version 1.9.
Very lightweight, supports all Minecraft 1.21 versions and now also 26.1!

Surround an apple with 8 gold blocks in a crafting table!

The recipe will show up in your recipe book after you craft it for the first time.

Datapack (Vanilla/Fabric/Forge)
Works on both singleplayer worlds and servers.

Why does this exist?
The goal is to make enchanted golden apples more accessible again in vanilla minecraft - and not purely relying on loot. Great for SMP and survival servers.
Roadmap
- Add support for older versions (1.20.x, 1.19.x, etc.)
- Config file for customizing the recipe!
