Apple 'Altländrer Pfannkuchen'

Malus domestica 'Altländer Pfannkuchen'

This apple has a dry, mildly acidic taste.

The apples are ripe for picking in October and ripe for consumption in March.

They are suitable for applesauce and, as the name suggests, they are very suitable for use in pancakes: with their pronounced aroma, this is a delicious taste experience!

They are rich in vitamin C and this old apple variety is also suitable for most people with an apple allergy.

The fruits have a flat, round shape and are medium-sized. On the sunny side, the apples turn reddish, otherwise the skin is rather dull yellowish, when they are ripe. The basic colour of the skin is green.

The flesh is firm and greenish white in colour.
