Dee, there are so many variations – how big, how fresh, what variety (how juicy) - it's hard to make this assessment. That said, I've found a typical medium Granny Smith weighs about 5 1/2 ounces, so – give or take, more or less – there are 3 apples per pound. Given a pound of apples (3 medium apples) yields about 3 cups prepared apples, you'd need 2 2/3 pounds or – in the case of those medium Granny Smiths – about 8 apples. That said - always ask for more. So I'd ask for 10 apples, OK? You can always just eat any leftovers. Hope this helps - PJH
