Braeburn is a popular variety of apple known for its crisp texture and balanced sweet-tart flavor. Originating in New Zealand in the 1950s, it is a cross between the Granny Smith and Golden Delicious apples. Braeburn apples are typically medium to large in size and have a distinctive red and green skin. These apples are versatile and can be enjoyed fresh, in salads, or used for baking and cooking. They are also rich in vitamins and dietary fiber, making them a healthy snack option. Braeburn apples are usually harvested in late autumn and are available in markets throughout the year.
