What apples should I use for baking?

Much of this is personal preference however we do recommend our Golden Delicious, Cortland and Spies for baking. Golden Delicious are not typically suggested, however Mrs. Borcsok will argue that they are the best apple for pies and because of their sweetness require less added sugar. Blending in a Mac or two will assist with the consistency.
