golden apple

You are using the recipe before 1.1 (the one with golden nuggets), aren't you?

yes i am

In that case, it is Working As Intended, because the crafting recipe with gold nuggets was replaced with gold ingots.

i'll try that, thanks for the input

it worked, feel kinda silly for not knowing but thankful none the less
