We always end up with a lot of apples. I make apple crisp a lot. It's super fast and easy. None of us will eat apple sauce, but we like apple crisp.

I'd make apple jelly, if it weren't so much work.

Which one do you have?

If you have a juicer, apples are great in a variety of combinations. I love apple/lemon/ginger/kale juice. Smoothies and some of the other ideas here are less wasteful than juicing, but juicing is great if you get to a point where you are so tired of something you can no longer bear to be creative with it.

If you have a Kitchenaid mixer, the food mill attachment is really useful.

I have never quite succumbed and thus rarely go on an apple-picking binge. when I do, I get SO TIRED of peeling and coring and chopping.


Yeah we bought one! I got home and was like "all of these will go to waste because I'm not peeling them by hand!"

What kind are they? Some store better than others.

Roast applesauce?
