Make Your Apple Pie Stand Out

Use these helpful tips to create a delicious apple pie!

      -When making an apple pie, it is best to use more than one variety of apple (ones that keep their shape during cooking and ones that soften, break down and help to thicken the pie.) Our suggestions for both apples that keep their shape during baking and apples that soften during baking:

      -Apples that hold their shape during cooking: Braeburn, Golden Delicious, Granny Smith, Jonagold, Rome Beauty, Winesap.

-Apples that do not hold their shape and soften during cooking: Cortland, Empire, Macoun, McIntosh.

Try a pinch of Cardamom in your next apple pie.  It is a spice that not many are familiar with, but I think you’ll like it.
