Old Golden Apple Recipe — Forge 1.18.2
Bring back the classic Golden Apple crafting recipe from older versions of Minecraft!
This simple mod adds the old Golden Apple recipe back to Minecraft 1.18.2 Forge. I made this mod because the only other 1.18.2 mod I could find that added the old recipe was causing crashes, so I decided to make my own lightweight version that works properly.
🍎 What This Mod Adds
- Restores the old Golden Apple crafting recipe
- Made specifically for Forge 1.18.2
- Lightweight and focused on one thing
- No unnecessary features
📌 Version Information
Important: This is my only mod for Minecraft 1.18.2.
All of my other mods will continue to be made for:
- Forge 1.20.1
- Forge 1.20.4
- Fabric 26.1.2
I made this 1.18.2 version specifically because I wanted the old Golden Apple recipe without having to use a mod that causes crashes.
Enjoy the classic recipe! 🍎
also the old recipe is apple in the middle and gold blocks all around
