Cider? or similar. If they are cookers perhaps they could be bottled?

We eaten the last of ours, still got some frozen slices and sauce in the freezer though.

Nicos have you thought about getting a dehydrator.

Mice and guinea pigs ate mine (I didn't fancy any after the mice had a taste)

I make wine, cakes and jam with mine. Still got plenty in the garage individually wrapped in newspaper. But even then a fair percentage have gone brown.

Nope- but I will now!! ( after removing the pips!)

Dehydrator- good idea Bren!

I checked ours a couple of weeks ago and found a few had gone rotten and many of the others were starting to shrivel and look less appetising. Had (or more acurately my mother had) a blitz on cooking and freezing, keeping a few fresh for pies, the last of which was baked yesterday.

Think this is the way to go for me to be honest

Certainly don't look nice enough to give away in their uncooked state!

I have eaters which are ready in August. They don't store well. despite making over a million letres of cider (I exaggerate lol) and eating loads, and giving loads away... I peel chop, and lightley cook, til just starting to go soft. Then bag up for the freezer. Makes great crumbles and tonight when I was too lazy to make crumble the children had stewed apples and custard! No sugar requited

Still got loads left which should last another month or so.

I made apple sauce, strudel, pies, cakes, put some out for the birds through the winter. None left now.

I'm jealous of you lot - I only had one on my tree this year!
