Can I freeze sautéed apples?

Yes! Sautéed or cooked apples can be frozen for up to three months in an airtight container. Just make sure to let them cool completely before you freeze them. When you're ready to use them, let them thaw at room temperature, and reheat as necessary.

Which apples are best for cooking?

It depends on what you're using the apples for, but when it comes to baking and cooking, typically apples on the tart side work best. Cortlands, McIntosh, Honeycrisp, Fuji, Pink Lady, Jazz, and Granny Smith apples all have some level of tartness to them that make them perfect cooking apples.

When is cooking apple season?

Generally, late summer through fall is considered apple season, typically peaking in September and October for most varieties. Honeycrisp, McIntosh, and Cortlands are cooking apples that peak in September and October. However, Pink Lady, Jazz, and Granny Smith seasons last into spring. Fuji season is later -- November and December.

Ingredients

Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

Apples. Add the sliced apples to a bowl and toss in lemon juice, maple syrup, cinnamon, and salt.
Preheat. Heat coconut oil in a sauté pan over medium heat until melted and hot (should move quickly across the pan when you tilt it).
Sauté apples. Add the apple-cinnamon mixture to the pan and sauté over medium heat for about 5 minutes until softened and warm, stirring occasionally to get all sides of the apples exposed to the heat. Once done, remove from heat and serve warm, or transfer to a container to enjoy later.

Notes

Serving suggestions: These sautéed apples are delicious served warm over pancakes, French toast, warm oatmeal, and as a dessert topped with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream. They are also delicious served chilled in yogurt parfaits, on vanilla ice cream, or in overnight oats.
Apples: You can use your favorite kind of apple! For the best flavor, I recommend sweet-tart varieties, such as Honeycrisp, Jazz, Fuji, Pink Lady, or Granny Smith (more on the tart side).
