Crab apples are native to North America, but aren’t the ones everyone likes to eat — that’s why we needed Johnny Appleseed!
Apples ... originated in Kazakhstan, in central Asia east of the Caspian Sea. The capital of Kazakhstan, Alma Ata, means “full of apples.” By 1500 BC apple seeds had been carried throughout Europe. The Greeks, Etruscans, and Romans cultivated apples. To the latter goes the credit, during the early centuries of the Christian era, for having carried apple seeds and trees to the British Isles. historicsites.nc.gov/...
In fact, apples go way back …
Greek mythology claims an apple caused the outbreak of the Trojan War. The jealous goddess Eris descended uninvited upon a banquet attended by all of the other gods and goddesses. She tossed an apple into the room with a note reading "to the fairest." The celebration went into a tailspin. A mortal was commanded to decide which goddess was the fairest, and it's safe to say not everyone was pleased with his decision (via Pressbooks). www.tastingtable.com/...

Chef John’s Apple Fritter Pancakes look amazing.
If you want to make a pancake that tastes like apple fritter doughnuts, you might be tempted to simply whip up a batch of apple fritter doughnut dough, transfer it into a hot pan, brown it on both sides, and boom! Apple fritter pancakes! Sorry, that's not going to work. I tried that, and all you really get is flat, poorly made apple fritter doughnuts. What you really need to do is make a perfectly light, and airy pancake that tastes like an apple fritter doughnut, which is what I eventually did. www.allrecipes.com/...
