They are so delicious! If you haven't had one, you're missing out. So sweet and juicy.. Good source of fiber too. Just wanted you all to know the best apple out there

    These are my favorite, too. Unfortunately, we are no longer seeing them in local stores. Galas are still here and I like them with peanut butter. Pretty soon we'll be down to the mushy, over-waxed ones, though. :frown:

    Yep! My fave apple by far :) I sometimes slice and peel them, sauté them in just the tiniest bit of butter, sprinkle with just a bit of brown sugar and cinnamon. It's like a mini-apple pie without all the calories. SO good. Oh! and it makes an amazing topping for oatmeal.

    Cortland is one of the best ever.

    Gala is good.

    Honey crisp is right at the top.

    One I usta dearly love was WOLF RIVER.......they are gigantic. ONE Apple is enough to make a 10 inch Apple Pie

    OMG I sooooooooo love fruits...Apples top the list

    I tried one a month or so ago and was underwhelmed. Gala is my default but when Fujis are abundant and cost-comparable, I'll all over them.... they're sweet enough to be a dessert!

    *ETA: Just bought a 5# bag of each last week. Apples don't last long around here.

    As far as I know we don't have them in Australia or at least where I live. Dying to try one though since so many keep talking about it and I'm not even mad on apples. Pink lady is the best here I think.

    There is another apple out that is very similar in taste as Honeycrips but is available earlier in the season.

    Zestar - they look alot like honeycrisp and taste awesome!

    I picked up a couple lbs yesterday at the farmers market and they are AMAZNIG!! I like it because its a softer flesh than most apples out today and its sweet and juicy just like the honeycrips.

    Oh... and they are definitely CHEAPER than honeycrisp too!

    They are the best. Every fall i look forward to them, eat tons and then eat no apples through the winter because i can't get fresh honeycrisps.

    Oooh, I recently switched to Fuji after a lifetime of Red Delicious ... how does Honeycrisp compare to Fuji?

    The orchard across the street from us grows honeycrisps but I've never tried one-going to pick up some tomorrow and try them this way, since I don't like apples by themselves, but I love fruit in my oats :happy: We're in the middle of apple season here and this year as it winds down I'm going to buy two bushels and then keep them out on my three season porch. With our cold MI winters they should keep for quite a while (I hope lol).
