Craft Enchanted Golden Apples

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!

Crafting Recipe

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.

Features

• No configuration needed, just drop it in and play
• Recipe automatically appears in your recipe book after crafting once
• Lightweight and performance-friendly

Installation

Plugin (Paper, Spigot, Purpur)

1. Download the .jar file
2. Drop it into your server’s /plugins folder
3. Restart your server

Datapack (Vanilla/Fabric/Forge)

Works on both singleplayer worlds and servers.

1. Download the datapack .zip file
2. Place it in your world’s /datapacks folder

• Singleplayer: .minecraft/saves/[WorldName]/datapacks
• Server: [ServerFolder]/[WorldName]/datapacks

1. Run /reload ingame or restart your server
2. Check with /datapack list to verify.

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!
• …
