Braeburn apples have a combination of sweet and tart flavors. Braeburn apples are frequently called for in recipes for pies, cakes, and tarts. This variety also has a natural cinnamon-spice flavor, making them an excellent choice for apple crumbles, crisps, and cobblers. Braeburn apples are a good source of fiber, vitamins A, and C, and contain trace amounts of boron and potassium, most of which are located in the apple's skin.
