Preparing your apples
Apples are easy to work with but you are on a time frame with them in order to keep their color.
Lemon juice does help them from turning brown but eventually they still will continue to have a discoloring if you wait too long.
Start with peeling my apples. If you have an apple peeler that is quick and easy, you can also use a sharp knife to peel with too.
Next, cut your apples into slices. You will want them all about the same size slice so they bake evenly.
I like to use my apple slicer then I get rid of the core and seeds at once. The slices are a little too thick so then I cut those sliced in half.
If you do not have an apple slicer, a sharp knife works best. Simply cut in half and then quarter them into the same thickness. About 1/4 inch slices.
Here are some of my favorite apples to bake with:
- Granny Smith apples: most the time these are the apples I like to bake with. They are not too sweet but have enough to be sweet and savory.
- Golden delicious apples: these apples tend to bruise easily and turn colors quickly. They have a sweetness to them that we love though.
- Fuji apples: enjoy more of a sugary flavoring in these apples. They are a bit sweeter than most.
- Honey Crisp apples: tastes just like they sound. They are crisp and sweet like honey.
- Green apple: these are great for a tart pie or dessert.
