Notes: TIP: The best apples for baking are those that are firm and rather tart. Granny Smith apples are the best choice because they also turn brown less slowly than other varieties. Haralson, McIntosh, and Cortland are also good choices for baking apples. Do not use Gala, Jonathan, or Fuji apples in baking, because they will fall apart during baking.
