\"\"<\/p>\n

Fall is our favorite time of year<\/a>, and we\u2019ve eagerly looked forward to fall apple picking. If you\u2019ve made a recent trip to a local apple orchard with your kids, we\u2019re sure it\u2019s resulted in a huge box of apples!<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve enjoyed munching on them fresh with toffee apple dip<\/a>, and Apple Pie Pork Chops<\/a>, but we have also frozen much of our abundance.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

How to Freeze Apples:<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. Peel, core, and slice the apples.<\/strong>
    *If you just have a few apples, a paring knife or vegetable peeler works, but if you have a large quantity, a peeler\/corer\/slicer tool is very useful and saves a lot of time.<\/em><\/li>\n
  2. Sprinkle chopped\/sliced apples with lemon juice to prevent apples from turning brown.<\/strong>
    *You can even add spices such as cinnamon and nutmeg along with some sugar to have seasoned apples ready for apple pies or apple crisp!<\/em><\/li>\n
  3. Portion apples into freezer bags or other containers, seal, label, and freeze!<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Things to Note:\u00a0<\/strong>It\u2019s important to know that freezing apples will<\/em><\/strong> change the consistency and when thawed they will become mushy. You won\u2019t be crunching on them for a snack.<\/p>\n

    Ways to Use Frozen Apples<\/h2>\n
      \n
    • Make\u00a0homemade applesauce,<\/a> we even have an Instant Pot Version<\/a>!<\/li>\n
    • Puree and use as a substitute for oil or\u00a0eggs<\/a> in baked goods such as\u00a0muffins<\/a>.<\/li>\n
    • Make apple pie<\/a>, apple crisp<\/a>, or apple cake (toddlers<\/a>, breakfast<\/a>, and dessert<\/a>).<\/li>\n
    • Add to hot, cooked oatmeal<\/a>.<\/li>\n
    • Make apple cinnamon muffins<\/a>, pancakes<\/a>, or waffles.<\/li>\n
    • Add cinnamon and sugar, microwave in a bowl until soft, and eat with a scoop of ice cream or whipped cream.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
