You can use apples in various ways, from making refreshing cider to preparing delicious apple pies and fritters. ### Refreshing cider Cider is an alcoholic beverage made from fermented [apple juice](https://www.fruitlife.nl/en/assortment/apple-puree-100?hsLang=en). It begins with scredding the apples, finely chopping them to squeeze out the juice. Then the liquid is stored in barrels, and the fermentation process begins. Depending on the desired result, this can take several months to a year. The result is a refreshing drink with a slight apple flavour and an alcohol content ranging from 3% to 8%. ### Apple fritters Beignets are another great use of apples. Beignets are deep-fried dough balls often filled with fruit or chocolate. Apples are popular for fritter fillings because of their sweet and juicy texture. The dough for fritters is made with flour, yeast, sugar, milk and eggs. The apples are cut into small pieces and mixed with sugar and cinnamon before being folded into the dough. Then the fritters are fried until golden brown and sprinkled with powdered sugar. ### Tasty baked goods You can prepare apple pastries with apples in many different ways. One of the most popular apple pastries is apple crumble. Apples are cut into small pieces and mixed with sugar, cinnamon and flour. The mixture is then covered with a crumble layer and baked until golden brown. Another popular choice is apple pie, made with a cake base of flour, butter and sugar. In short, apple is a versatile ingredient that can be used in various ways in cooking. For cider, fritters or pastries, apple's sweet and juicy flavour adds a delicious element to any dish.
