Apple Pie Filling (to Freeze Or Can)

Here are just a few of the tasks [the deacons] can handle for the church: 1. Collect, account for and distribute the offerings. 2. Maintain the physical properties of the church – buildings, grounds, vehicles, etc. 3. Care for the widows, orphans and other needy members of the body. 4. Pay the church bills. 5. Supervise the benevolence program of the church. 6. Determine the salaries and benefit programs for the church staff. 7. Purchase and supervise the church’s insurance policies. 8. Create and maintain church budgets. 9. Provide care for those members who have physical and financial needs. 10. Supervise building programs. 11. Usher and otherwise assist at the services. 12. Assist the elders in the distribution of the Lord’s Supper. 13. Provide transportation for those members who are not mobile.

INGREDIENTS

4 1/2	c	Sugar
1/4	t	Nutmeg
10	c	Water
1	c	Cornstarch
1	t	Salt
24	c	Apples, peeledsliced
2	t	Cinnamon
3	t	Lemon juice

INSTRUCTIONS

Blend sugar, nutmeg, cornstarch, salt, cinnamon. Add water and cook
till clear.  Add apples and lemon juice and cook till apples are  soft.
Pack in jars/containers.  To make pie, make crust and bake.  Into
prepared crust, put thawed filling and bake until warmed  through.
Crumb topping can be added before baking filling if you want  (I use
sugar, cinnamon, margarine and chopped pecans.) I found that  the
thickener (the flour, water, etc. mix that is cooked first) made  a lot
more than could be used up by 24 c of apples.  I think I got a  total
of 8-10 large containers (I use empty 32 oz yogurt containers).  One of
these containers was just enough for a 9 in pie. I also used  (don't
tell anybody) prepared pie shells just fine with this filling.  I also
used a large nonstick pot to cook this in and had very little  problem
with sticking at medium to medium high temperature.  From Gemini's
