Apple recipes

Options
Went to the doctor yesterday. The surgery has a large apple tree in the grounds. Patients can help themselves :D

We brought back loads, shook the tree and picked up what fell.

I'm looking for something different to do with them apart from the usual suspects. Will be making lots of chutneys along with my tomato glut, pies and crumbles etc.

Don't know what the apples are, they are a bit sweet for cookers, slightly tart.

    This year we have our beloved "Bramlyishes" in a compote with sultanas/ raisins with allspice, cinnamon & honey for breakfast, with porridge or cereal. Frozen in pots for work deskfast!
    The other 900 weight have gone as freebies or to friends with horses.

    I wish :(

    Unfortunately all the apples in the world wouldn't have prevented my knee replacement (ouch, due to major trauma to my knee not wear and tear)

    The surgery had some lovely hedges with lots of blackberries. Unfortunately when I turned up with my biggest Lock n Lock box tragedy had struck, the hedges had been totally trimmed back:(
