ROSY CRABAPPLE OR APPLE PIE FILLING - (FREEZE OR CAN)

Steps:

• In large pot steam sliced apples 1- 2 minutes.
• Cool 1- 2 minutes.
• Add the rest of the ingredients and pie filler is ready to use.
• Hint When dealing with large quantities of apples I prepare double and triple batches of the pie filler, cool and set into the fridge while preparing the pastry.
• I find using the recipe 'Lemon Tang Pastry' which was passed to me as no-fail pastry works so very well making the preparation of pies for the freezer a snap.
• Time depends on how fast you can prepare the apples, those with experience do get throught prep time quickly!
