Welcome to Apple Trees, this site is fanatical about anything to do with apples and apple trees. Our fanaticism started when we planted our dwarf apple tree in our small back garden. Gradually, this became an obsession and to cut a long story short, we bought some land and started our own orchard.

To say our apple trees are our passion would be an understatement. We will be gradually adding lots of photos and apple trees articles, including growing apple tree guides, guide on dwarf apples trees, apple recipes, apple tree growing and much more!

You will be able to buy apple trees here also! Apple trees for sale around the UK will be listed, as will review guides and how to buy apple trees.

   Hi, Here is the basic recipe one that I have made up before.
   6 cups thinly slices, peeled apples (2 pounds)
   1 cup sugar
   2 Tbls. all-purpose flour
   1/2 to 1 tsp. ground cinnamon
   Dash ground nutmeg
   Pastry for Double-Crust Pie
   1 Tbls. butter
   Oven set on 375*
   If apples lack tartness, sprinkle with 1 Tbls. lemon juice.
   Combine sugar, flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg. (For a very juicy pie, omit the flour.)
   Add sugar mixture to the sliced apples; toss to coat fruit. Fill a pastry-lined 9-inch pie plate with apple mixture; dot with butter. Adjust top crust. Seal and flute edge. Sprinkle some sugar atop, if desired.
   Cover edge of pie with foil. Bake in a 375 oven for 25 minutes. Remove foil; bake for 20 to 25 minutes more or till crust is golden. Cool.
   Serve with cheese, if desired.

   If your apples aren’t very good, your pie won’t be either. Try cooking your apples on top of the stove first and adding apple juice to them. About 1/2 cup. Add the sugar required by the recipe. Simmer them for about 20 minutes, add 2 Tlbsp. of cornstarch or flour to thicken. I would let this cool first before putting into the piecrust to keep the crust from getting soggy. Then bake as per the recipe.

   Add sugar, cinnamon and some corn starch or tapioca for thickening. That should be all you need for an apple pie.

   for the filling, use less flour becuase flour thickens it
