What apples are the best for apple pie?
I am a Granny Smith Apple fan myself, but many people swear by Honey Crisp or Golden Delicious apples.
Honestly, the best ones will be your favorite apples!
There’s no real trick to using certain apples for better pies – let your own tastebuds and preferences lead you.
Here’s a tip, though: for an even more flavorful pie, use a few different varieties of apples!
How many pounds of apples do I need for a pie?
A regular 9-inch, deep dish, apple pie takes approximately 4 pounds of apples. That is equal to about 11 cups of sliced apples.
But, I highly recommend that you err on the side of caution and get an extra pound (or two) of fresh apples just to be safe! You can always make more yummy apple recipes like the ones below!
