What is the average weight of an apple?

The average weight of an apple is 1/3 pound, or approximately 5 ounces, according to the Apple Journal of the Kitchen Reference Guide. Weight varies by the type and size of apple.

Two pounds of apples are required to make a 9-inch apple pie. The average apple tree yields over 800 pounds of apples during a harvest, and the average U.S. consumer eats over 40 pounds of apples each year.
