Classic Pie ususaly calls for, Granny Smith Apples that maintain a firm but tender texture after being baked in the oven. However, if you like add a few Johnathan Apples to the mix for a different flavor.

Winesapps are the best. To make the best pie you need to first look for tartness-Granny Smiths are not tart enough-then you consider taste. Of course, the more tart the apple, the more sugar you pile on to offset it!
