Braeburn Apple

The Braeburn apple is a variety of apple originating from New Zealand, recognized for its balanced sweet and tart flavor and its firm, crisp texture. This medium to large-sized apple has smooth skin with a vibrant reddish-orange color, often combined with yellow or green tones.

This apple is highly valued in cooking both for fresh consumption and for recipes that require baking, as it holds its shape and does not easily fall apart when cooked. Its perfect balance makes it ideal for preparing desserts such as pies, compotes, and crumbles, as well as salads and healthy snacks.

In terms of nutritional properties, the Braeburn apple is an excellent source of dietary fiber, vitamin C, and antioxidants, contributing to improved digestion and a strengthened immune system.

In different regions of Latin America, the Braeburn apple may be known simply as red apple or tart apple, although its commercial name is usually kept the same due to its international popularity.
