Re: What Are the Best Apples for Pie
Granny Smith, IMO. They stay firm and are tart, yet not too sour.

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... |

Re: What Are the Best Apples for Pie
As I used to be a baker, I'd say Granny Smith for firm apple and cortland or lobo for the soft type.

Re: What Are the Best Apples for Pie
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.
