I'm thinking of racking my cider onto raw apples after fermentation is complete. Theoretically to enhance aroma and taste. Has anyone ever done this? How did it come out?

You'd have to make sure to sanitize the apples with sulfite to make sure they won't infect the cider. They should ferment, as the sugars in apples are fermentable.
