Crab Apple Jelly?

While in the self-proclaimed "Cherry Capital of America", Traverse City, we saw two trees loaded with the most perfect plump red fruits. I stopped to take a picture of the "cherry trees", and they turned out to be Crab Apples.

 

Googling "Crab Apple Recipes", I was surprised to find many recipes for crab apple jelly, pie filling, butter...etc. I'm sure the abundant fruits would taste fine, but seems like a lot of work preparing the tiny apples.
