Empire Apple

The Empire apple is a crunchy variant, renowned for its sweet-tart flavor combined with a hint of spice. Originating in New York, it's a cross between McIntosh and Red Delicious apples, benefiting from the best qualities of both. Its deep red skin ensconces a crisp, juicy, white flesh that's perfect for a fresh, healthy snack. Moreover, Empire apples maintain their texture well when cooked, making them ideal for baking and other culinary uses. From classic apple pies to inventive salads, their distinct flavor adds depth to a variety of dishes.
