An heirloom variety, winter banana apples are full of interesting flavors and posses an old-fashioned sort of beauty. Pale yellow with faint pink blush, the interior cream-colored flesh is sweet, tart, and juicy with a definite banana aroma and very dense & crisp texture. Best for fresh eating, especially sliced and paired with cheese, the tartness of these apples also allows them to cook well into tarts or pies.
