The Best Apples for Baking

RE: The Best Apples for Baking By Joey H. (Guest Post) I thought this would have a quick list of Best Apples for Baking. Instead there is a bunch of blogs which are not useful. Please update your site and make it user friendly, and matches the Google search engine results. Thanks, Joey Posted on 01/09/2009 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: The Best Apples for Baking By Gwen Read (Guest Post) My very favorite apples for pies/baking are Pippin. They retain their shape and the tartiness lends well with the sugar and cinnamon. Hard to find, but seem to be plentiful during the holiday season.

Posted on 09/28/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: The Best Apples for Baking By Megan (Guest Post) Just found a huge apple tree, but, I'm having a hard time determining what kind they are. Bigger than crab apples, but not as big as the ones in the store. Anyone have any ideas as to what to do with them? I'd appreciate any input! Thanks! snorainbow1 AT frontiernet.net Posted on 09/27/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: The Best Apples for Baking By wendy (Guest Post) Can I use Anna apples for baking? Editor's Note: I hadn't heard of these before. From what I read, they are good for eating fresh or cooking.

Posted on 01/22/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: The Best Apples for Baking By Stuart (Guest Post) I'm in Texas, and the granny smith apples here are big, not juicy, and are rather disappointing compared to what mom made back in the 50's. So I'm going to try cortlands for my next outing with apple pie.

Posted on 01/31/2006 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: The Best Apples for Baking By Toni (Guest Post) My very favorite apples for baking -- I'm an apple pie specialist -- are gravensteins. They're hard to find, nowadays. The closest seconds are pink ladies, fujis and granny smiths. You have to taste the apples while you're peeling them. If they're not quite tasty or tart enough, you add a little lemon juice to the pie. Along with cinnamon, ginger, and cloves, add a little nutmeg. A secret: add a little salt or salt substitute. Splenda's a great sugar substitute, if you need it. Posted on 01/26/2006 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: The Best Apples for Baking By mairmie (Guest Post) I live in Canada as well. I personally like McIntosh ,Gala and Gravensteins. They`ve all been very good. Gravensteins are sometimes hard to find but well worth the search. I believe they`re grown in the Annapolis Valley of N.S.

This fall, I have an apple tree (unknown, tart) that I hope to use for many pies and kuchen! Posted on 01/19/2006 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: The Best Apples for Baking By camo_angels (600) Profile Contact I like fuji's or Gala, but the best canned I have found are at wal-mart....Great Value (or whatever the brand is) sweetened with splenda (NO acesulfame potassium or Nutrasweet!) Just add your cinnamon, nutmeg, etc. and it is not too sweet, just a lot of flavor! I found the regular pie filling I add one cup of cut strawberries or apples to so the hf corn syrup gets stretched out....not my primary choice, but apple-strawberry pie is becoming a new favorite in my house after that experiment!

For a great burst of flavor and snack then have a GALA or PinkLady, Fuji apple ;those are yummy.

Posted on 01/19/2006 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: The Best Apples for Baking By sunhat (49) Contact Cook's Illustrated magazine (the same folks who do the America's Test Kitchen show on TV) from several months ago recommends the following: For cooking/baking: Cortland Jonagold Empire Granny Smith Golden Delicious (will be very soft and sweet) For raw out-of-hand eating: Braeburn Gala Macoun Fuji Jonagold Macintosh Winesap Rome Beauty Hope this helps! Posted on 01/19/2006 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: The Best Apples for Baking By Krista Fillmore (Guest Post) I found that granny smiths are really good beacause they are tart and with all the sugar that you add to recipes they tend to be the perfect mixture. If you are looking for a red apple sparten are good. Posted on 01/19/2006 | Report Spam or Abuse
