The One Crispy Apple I'm Choosing Over Honeycrisp Right Now

Learn about an apple variety that is super crisp and firm that I am getting at apple orchards over Honeycrisp this month. It took a long time from when the Crimson Crisp apple was first bred until it was available to be grown commercially. It was first developed in the 1970s by the PRI (Purdue, Rutgers, and Illnois) co-operative. It wasn't until 2006 that the apple was released for growers. That is a long time in the development process. You don't get rich quick by developing a new apple variety!

Your Kitchen Is About to Smell Incredible

Apple and cinnamon have a way of making a kitchen feel warmer before the first slice ever leaves the pan. This Sweet Apple Cinnamon Bread is packed with cozy spice, tender apple goodness, and that soft, moist crumb that makes “just a little slice” nearly impossible. The edges turn beautifully golden while the middle stays tender, with pockets of apple bringing juicy sweetness against all that fragrant cinnamon. It’s somewhere between breakfast, snack, and dessert—which is excellent news because that means there are technically three acceptable times to eat it.

Their flavor is simple and comforting, which allows them to work equally well with savory meals and sweet breakfast toppings. Fresh from the pan, they have the rustic texture that makes traditional recipes endure.
