Food Storage - Canned Apple Pie Filling


4 Cups sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 Cup cornstarch, 3 Tablespoons cinnamon (less if you like), 1 Tablespoon Nutmeg (less if you like), 10 Cups water.
Add all together, cook well over medium heat while stirring. Cook till it becomes clear and thick. Add 3 Tablespoons of lemon juice. I have apples already sliced and in the jars(about 60 med. size). Ladle syrup into jars leaving 1/2 inch head space. Water bath for 20 minutes. Needs one inch of water over the jars. Remove and let cool on counter.
Makes great Apple Crisp -
1 Cup flour, 1 Cup oats, 1 Cup brown sugar & 1 Cup butter
Take a bowl and mix dry ingredients, stir in softened butter. Evenly spread over Apple Pie Filling recipe in 9 X 13 pan (sprayed with Pam) and cover with Apple Crisp topping. Cook for 45 minutes at 350. When it turns golden brown it is done. Let it cool for awhile then you can serve it with yummy ice cream. What a treat to have in our food storage.
