Granny Smith Apples are a classic tart variety known for their bright green skin and crisp, firm flesh. With a distinctly sharp, tangy flavor that mellows slightly when cooked, they are prized both for fresh eating and culinary use. This 4-pound bag from Costco offers excellent value for families and home cooks.

These apples are an all-purpose kitchen staple. Their firm texture holds up exceptionally well during baking, making them ideal for pies, tarts, crisps, and cobblers. They also pair beautifully with cheese boards, salads, and savory dishes, and their tartness balances sweet dips like caramel and peanut butter. They can be stored in the refrigerator for several weeks while maintaining their crunch and flavor.

Granny Smith apples are a good source of dietary fiber and vitamin C, and are naturally low in calories with no added sugar or preservatives.
