Re: What apples do you use to make apple pie?
I use about 8 Granny Smith Apples for tartness and about 4-5 (depending on the size) McIntosh Apples for sweetness per pie.

Williams Sonoma has a wonderful jar of apple pie filling.... It's pretty helpful

Re: What apples do you use to make apple pie?
I was just about to post this!! I usually use half granny smith and half whatever looks good, but I wanted to make a more educated guess this year. A website I'm looking at right now says:
"I've made this apple pie with several different types of apples. Jonathon apples make a delightful pie, but so do Delicious or Macintosh apples. Gala, Fuji, and Braeburn apples are OK, but I don't prefer them for a pie. If you'd rather have a tart apple pie, then use Granny Smith apples."

I agree. I add a Granny Smith for depth, but I prefer Golden Delicious. I find I need less "sweetening" when I use Goldens.
