Granny Smith apples are the most popular green apple variety in the world. Granny Smith apples have a thick green skin that may have a faint yellow or pink blush. The apples tend to be medium-sized with firm, white flesh. These characteristics mean that Granny Smith apples store very well as they do not bruise easily and hold their texture even when off the tree.
Granny Smith apples are famous for their sour green apple flavor. They have a strong tart taste and a bright acidic tang, and are incredibly crisp and juicy. They are known as one of the best apples for baking and are a favorite for juicing and making cider.
