Apples, Apples and more apples. What do I do with them.?

does any one near you make cider or real apple jouice !! we have an enviromental group that collects your apples , picks them for you if you prefer , and makes lovely drinks to buy ... I would love a couple of pound for a crumble **

I guess you could see if any charities for the homeless would like some, I'm sure there would be people in your area who are in need of some good fresh food. Apart from that, erm, I like tea-cake with cubes of apples spread throughout the mixture. Gosh, I think you listed just about everything else I can think of to cook with apples though...

Did you know that apple sauce can be substituted for the fat in baking? It works great in both cakes and brownies...and surprisingly you don't really taste it. With the extras you are going to have, are there any food banks near you where food is collected and redistributed for the poor? Or, how about kitchens or any large institution? Schools, hospitals or places such as that? You might approach grocery stores to see if they'd be interested. When I lived in New England, my neighbor used to set out baskets of the apple drops for the deer to eat. Of course they tended to ferment a bit. One year a black bear managed to find them and ate all the apples in both baskets. For the rest of the night we had a drunk blank bear (with the runs) meandering around the neighborhood. It was gone the next morning, no doubt looking for something to fix the hangover...

You can donate the remaining fruits to some charity where orphaned, poor or old people are supported. Let them have a nice food at-least once and that too because of you. Their blessings will give you a prosperous life . Hope you'll do it !

Growing up on the farm, mom always made big pans of apple crisp (apple crumble). We served it to all the farm workers and neighbors. We loved to eat apples on the way to school and when we returned home each day in the fall. Dad used to take the left over apples and make apple cider from them. Of course, we also had our own natural vinegar with the mother in it (sooooo healthy and good for you). Since we raised a cow every year for meat, guess what the cow liked to eat. That made for good steak. I like to use applesauce in my cooking in place of fats when baking. How about making apple filling for apple pies (don't forget the cinnamon)! Yum, I'm getting hungry. P.S. The best recipe I have ever seen for apple crisp is listed in the old Mickey Mouse Cookbook from Disney World it is called "Apples Supreme."

Did you try dried apples? They dry well especially if you get one of those machines that dry them for you. Plus, the apples are smaller when you dry them and they are easier to store. Just an idea.

Wow, your old apple tree is still very fertile eh! I love apple and I believe surely you will share some with me if I live near to your place Yeah, it’s really a great amount. It is better to get some income by selling them to the fruit stalls in your place, rather than to get them rotten. Or you can donate the apples to some charities to raise funds, or to find some friends to hold a grand party served with different delicious recipes of apple dishes and desserts. Hopefully all the participants would enjoy cheerfully in the wonderful party. Happy posting and have a nice day!

Better give me some! I am kidding. Actually we don't have apple trees in this part of world. It must be very nice to see. If you can donate some to needy people, it will bring some smile to them.Also if still left can sell some. it will give extra cash.

Apples are great although we can't grow them in my neck of the woods. We get our apples from China and Japan and sometimes Korea. I especially like Washington apples which are big and juicy but more expensive. Cheers!!

oh. that is nice to have a tree that bears apples a lot. you can do apple shake, apple pie and sell them. there are so many things you can do about it. and give away to charities if they will accept you are lucky to have so many apples now, here in my country one apple is $0.50. quite expensive for me. what kind of apple is it.

Apple sorbet for dessert is good to have in this hot summer day. That's so good to have an apple tree. :)

Make apple sauce, pies, crumbles, milkshakes, give them to local schools family etc mgrahqm 126

sell them.

Hi Colmuc, why don't you sell your apples in the local market?? I think it's good to make extra income from the apple tree. How's that??

IO have two apple trees in my yard. They are only 3 years old but I manage to get a couple hundred this year it seems. If I have many left over after baking etc or ones damaged from worms and bugs, I use them in my compost bin. Another idea is make cider or jams etc with some. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB!!~

I want apples!!! Could you give me some? I'll be good, promise!

Wow that is really a lot. I hope I can grow apple trees in my backyard so that I can have tons of apples to eat and give away too. If it was me, I would get a few kilos of apples for my personal use. I would make them into the desserts you mentioned. I would also eat it as is and even blend it and make it into a fruit shake or mix it with other fruits. Then I would also give a lot of apples to my family, relatives, and friends. If there is still a lot left, I would give it to the friends of my parents and siblings. If there is still a lot left after giving it to the aforementioned people, I would just sell it or give it to charity, beggars, and street children. At least, I was able to help the less fortunate in some way.

Better have them be shared for it be more fruitful for the years to come. I wish I had one too at our backyard.
