if they're not a rare variety take 'em down and start over IMO. apple wood makes good fires and for smoking meats.
i forgot to mention that large enough chunks of green wood from an apple tree might be prime mushroom innoculation to grow your own mushrooms...
This is simply my opinion, but why in the world would you do that? They are certainly not beyond redemption. If they produce and the fruit is horrible, sure maybe, but it's not as though Sprig is gardening on a micro city lot and every tree must prove it's worth.
And aren't there a lot of tree species you could innoculate with mushroom spores?
