Apples are an important ingredient in many desserts, such as apple pie, apple crumble, apple crisps, and apple cake. When cooked, some apple varieties readily transform into a puree known as apple sauce. Apples are also made into apple butter and apple jelly. They are usually grilled or stewed and are also cooked in some meat dishes. Dried apples can be eaten or reconstituted (soaked in water, wine, or some other liquid).
