Granny Smith, IMO. They stay firm and are tart, yet not too sour.

Smile Re: What Are the Best Apples for Pie

Up north it is.....as the saying goes.

For Apple Pie...... It's Northern Spy
Northern Spy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

However if you want an apple that is as hard as a rock and cleans your teeth like a milk bone biscuit and tastes good...
Arkansas Black - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

All grown locally in the Ohio River Valley....
And in Northern Michigan...

As I used to be a baker, I'd say Granny Smith for firm apple and cortland or lobo for the soft type.

I've been working on a Dutch apple pancake for several years now. I almost have it perfected. It'll be just like Bickford's or the Original Pancake House recipe.
