How To Make preserved apple pie filling
-
Step 1Peel, core, and slice apples; add lemon juice, toss to coat. In a large pan, mix sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt; add water and mix well. Over medium heat bring to a boil and cook until thick and bubbly. Stir frequently to prevent scorching. Remove from heat. Pack the sliced apples into hot canning jars, leaving a 3/4 inch headspace. Fill jars with hot syrup and gently remove air bubbles. Wipe rim and seal with hot sterile lid and ring; process in a Hot water bath canner for 20 minutes. Remove jars; let cool overnight; label and keep in a dark cool place until ready to use. Enjoy!!! Makes 6 quarts
