How To Freeze Fresh Apples

Apple season comes and goes in the blink of an eye! Freeze your fresh apples and enjoy them for a few months longer. Here’s how to properly freeze apples so that they come out just as crisp and fresh as the day you bought them!

1. Wash
2. Peel
3. Core
4. Slice to your preferred size
5. Dip apple slices in a bowl of water with a bit of lemon juice stirred in – this prevents apples from browning
6. Place apple slices on a baking sheet – do not let them touch
7. Once fully frozen, transfer apples to bags and put them back in the freezer

PRO TIP: The larger your slices the better your apples will be when they thaw. Thin slices are prone to be mushy as they thaw out.
