A sweet, cozy apple dessert is the perfect finish to any winter meal. As they say: An apple a day keeps the doctor away! There’s no rule it can’t be cooked into a scrumptious dessert. However, that does bring up the point that the apples you eat raw don’t always make the best ones for cooking.
Betty Crocker says: “For the best apple pies, apple crisps and other baked apple items, apples need to be firm enough to hold their shape. We recommend: Braeburn, Cortland, Fuji, Gala, Granny Smith, Haralson, Newtown Pippin…. Chopped or sliced apples for cakes and sauces can be less firm than apples used in pies. Choose the sweetest variety available for the best flavor. We recommend: Braeburn, Gala, Golden Delicious, Honey Gold, Jonathan, McIntosh.”
Now that you know which apples to use, we’ve got 10 fantastically tasty and inventive apple dessert recipes that will inspire you to start baking tonight!
