Apple Measurements & Weights

Apple Weights & Measures 

Learn How Many Apples in a Pound and How Many Apples in a Bushel. I use this to make sure I get a good deal at the orchards!

1 pound equals:

3 medium apples
2 cups sliced

3 pounds equals:

8-9 medium apples
one 9 inch pie

1 peck equals:

10-12 pounds
32 medium apples
3-4~ 9 inch pies
7-9 quarts frozen
4 quarts canned

1 bushel equals:

42-48 pounds
126 medium apples
15~ 9 inch pies
30-36 pints frozen
16-20 quarts canned

You should be paying around $0.50 a pound this time of year! Meijer's has them for $0.49 lb this week!
