This thing is huge for what it does..

Mine has a blade that cuts the apple in a spiral. Making pie, you just cut the apple in quarters and the pieces are just the right size. I recently did 6.5lbs of apples for apple butter in about 10 minutes. You can have the same one here for about $20.

I found mine at the local hardware store, which has a great kitchen section, but if none of the businesses in your area carry them you can always order one from Amazon. I like the one with the suction cup base, because it's super versatile, but I know my older relatives swear by the one that clamps right onto the counter or tabletop.

This thing will revolutionize potato peeling. source, have and older model one, used it for potatoes, will never not make real mashed potatoes ever again. Also, i make an inordinate amount of apple pie in the fall, so it works equally well for its intended purpose.

​

p.s. you can move the corer part out of the way on mine and just peel. this one appears to be movable as well. best money i ever invested in a kitchen gadget.

What a great picture. If you have never used one, I have one of these: https://www.amazon.com/Victorio-Kitchen-Products-VKP1010-Stainless/dp/B001DLTD1C There are similar models. They take a bit of getting used to but work great. I can do just over 120 apples an hour. Though your way is a great social experience.

This is the peeler. I have one, it's awesome. The pampered chef one is really nice, fyi for anyone who wants to get one.

u/Ashyr · 4 pointsr/Cooking

We sprinkle a little sugar and cinnamon on the apples after we've placed them on the dehydrator trays. The smell is incredible.

If you don't have an apple peeler, but are thinking about getting one, I recommend http://www.amazon.com/Johnny-Peeler-VICTORIO-VKP1010-Suction/dp/B001DLTD1C.

It costs the same as you would pay at target or bed bath and beyond, but is cast iron instead of aluminum, so it's way sturdier and the suction cup really works. You won't regret it.

Pie thoughts incoming... this got long!

Basic Apple Pie -- prep is so much easier with one of these thingies, which my Midwesterner husband laughs at and calls a "Yankee apple contraption"

2 pie crusts (I use Smitten Kitchen's all butter really flaky recipe)

6 apples, peeled, cored, and sliced

1 cup brown sugar

1/2 tsp cinnamon

a bit of nutmeg and clove to taste

pinch of salt

2 Tbsp thickener (cornstarch or flour)

2 Tbsp butter

optional: 2 Tbsp golden rum or applejack

1 egg yolk + 1 Tbsp water for egg wash

Preheat oven to 400.

Mix filling ingredients and place in bottom crust. Take butter and squish into small pieces, and dot among filling before putting on top crust. Weave lattice for top crust if desired. Brush with egg wash.

Put pie in oven, and immediately reduce temperature to 350. Bake 45-60 minutes, until crust is golden and filling is bubbling. Tent crust with foil if it starts to brown.

I've also had good luck with this Moosewood Scandinavian Berry Pie, which you might like for the tartness and blueberry-cherry combo. The crust puffs up very attractively in the oven.

Scandinavian Berry Pie

Filling

12 oz fresh or frozen cranberries

4 cups fresh or frozen blueberries (about 1 1/2 pounds)

1 tablespoon freshly grated orange peel

1/4 cup orange juice

1 1/2 cups sugar

1/3 cup cornstarch

Sour Cream Crust

2 1/2 cups unbleached white flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup butter

1 cup sour cream

1/4 cup flour for dusting the dough

Glaze

1 tablespoon heavy cream or milk

1 tablespoon sugar

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Combine all the filling ingredients in a large pot and continuously stir until the cranberries start to pop. Once the cranberries start to pop, watch it closely and continue to stir until it reaches your desired thickness. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.

Mix the flour, salt, and baking powder in a large mixing bowl. Cut the butter into the flour and then stir in the sour cream until a ball forms. Use 2/3 of the dough to make the pie crust. The remaining 1/3 of dough will be used for the lattice topping.

Pour the filling into the pie crust and roll out and cut the remaining dough into 6 large strips. Carefully lattice the strips on top of the pie folding the excess under the crust. Brush the lattice with the milk and sprinkle with the sugar.

Bake for 45 minutes, or until crust is golden and filling is bubbling.

Lastly, you might like this Bon Appetit cranberry-lime pie, which is sort of a Key lime pie but with cranberry as the primary color and flavor. It's a bit more work than a standard pie but SO gorgeous.

edit: forgot a couple tiny things!

I use this to prep apples for the dehydrator. I just got through 6lbs in about an hour over the weekend.

u/wwabc · 3 pointsr/homeowners

get a dehydrator and make apple rings/chips/fruit leather, and a big pot and jars to make apple sauce/butter.

also one of these will make it all much easier

u/MinimumROM · 3 pointsr/GifRecipes

Not with one of these.

Takes me about 5 minutes to prep everything for an apple pie.

u/phreshjive · 2 pointsr/aww

Buy one of these:

Always enjoyed giving my rabbit the peel. He ate it like it was a long piece of pasta.

u/DogSaysFeedMe · 2 pointsr/Baking

Apple corer and slicer for the win! Makes it go super fast! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001DLTD1C/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_t1_LY23DbK3YXNDN

Your pie looks great!

u/CowardiceNSandwiches · 2 pointsr/Cooking

I have cast-iron pans because few things beat a steak seared on cast iron, and the thermal mass of my enameled cast-iron Dutch oven makes it great for long simmering.

A fileting or boning knife makes it much easier to...filet things, like fish. If I tried to clean a crappie with a chef's knife, it'd probably end up looking like I used a dull shovel.

I also actually own two apple peeler/corers (ones like this), because we pick lots of apples every year for pies and applesauce and apple butter, and hand-peeling so many would be a nightmare

u/hereticsinsomnia · 1 pointr/funny

I know you're joking, but if anyone's actually interested they're less than $20

u/Samazonison · 1 pointr/dehydrating

That was my first thought. I hope OP has one of these doodads.

u/poopOnU · 1 pointr/Cooking

I have this one

It's very sturdy, and works so well.

u/ChemicalAutopsy · 1 pointr/Canning

I peel then quarter and core. Stovetop with a bit of water, stirring occasionally. I just sort of hand mash as I'm stirring because my family likes a few larger apple chuncks in it so long as they're soft. Just before canning add sugar and cinnamon to taste (you don't need a lot of sugar). Also tried adding raisins last year at my SO's request and they were a great addition!

I use one of these for peeling.

Just made these apple bars, turned out excellent (I used granny smith apples). If you left the caramel of they would still taste great.

For your sanity I highly recommend buying or borrowing something like this to peel the apples. I peeled 5 pounds by hand and I never want to peel another apple that way again. You'll want to peel the skins for when baking, otherwise they have a weird texture.
