I use to can several jars of this every year. So easy to just take it out & dump in pie shell & bake. 1 quart will do regular pie. 3 quarts will do 2 deep dish apple pies.

How To Make canned apple pie filling

Step 1

In large cook pot, combine all ingredients except the apples. *I like using clear jel for pies instead of corn starch. It doesn't clump up like corn starch. Stays smoother. Cook until mixture thickens, stirring constantly.

Step 2

Add the apples & continue cooking to boiling. Simmer 5 minutes.
Step 3

Pack in hot sterilized jars. Seal. Process in hot bath for 30 minutes.
