Only freezing apples will not keep them from browning. However, if you want to freeze them, there are a few ways of keeping them from browning while they sit in the freezer. You can dip apple slices in a solution of 1/2 teaspoon of ascorbic acid to 3 tablespoons of cold water, soak them in a solution of 2 tablespoons of salt and 1 gallon of water, or steam-blanch them for 1 1/2 minutes and cool them in ice water before freezing.
