12 Great Apples for Baking

With thousands of apple varieties, how do you choose when a recipe calls for 'cooking apples' or 'baking apples'? Here are 12 suggestions to give your recipe just the right flavor.

Golden Delicious

Favored for its naturally sweet flavor, the Golden Delicious requires less added sugar in recipes than other varieties. The thin skin doesn't need to be peeled, but the flesh won't stay as firm as some other baking apples. If you prefer a softer, sweeter pie, this apple is for you. Goldens also make great applesauce and apple butter, and will dress up any salad.
