What should I do with sour apples?!
One of my apple trees got ripe very early this year, which yielded some VERY sour apples!. The texture is great, and they are huge, but too sour to eat just as an apple!. What can I make with them!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

Most likely this early in the year they are Yellow Transparent variety or some similar variety!.

Apple butter! You ain't LIVED until you taste fresh apple butter on hot biscuit for breakfast! Do it in a crockpot/slow cooker!. You peel and then chop enough apples to fill the cooker to the rim!. Do not add any liquid; the apples will cook down and produce their own liquid!. Add a cup of sugar for every quart of apples!. Sprinkle on a tablespoonful of ground cinnamon and half a teaspoon of ground cloves and a half teaspoon of ground ginger!. Cover and let it cook eight hours or overnight on low!. Stir after the first two hours and again two hours later!. Transfer finished apple butter to sterile pint canning jars and seal!. Refrigerate the jar you want to use for two hours before opening!. Keep it in the fridge until empty!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
