Freezing apples

My neighbour has started bringing me this years apples and last year I tried freezing some that I’d dipped in lemon juice, they were very soggy when I defrosted them but ok to use in crumbles etc. Just wonder if it would be better cooking them first then freezing in portions, they aren’t perfect apples so no good for storing as they are.

So what do you do with your surplus apples?

Many thanks, Nanarose, your information is just what I needed.

I don't have a steam oven but will certainly give bottled apples a try - I will use my deep preserving pan which looks to be ideal.

It was kind of you to add the information.

Thank you again.
