Apple Filling for Pies image

After just making this again I think some may find the filling too thick so I am changing the instructions to say 2-4 tablespoons of cornstarch. We like our apples diced so it takes 3-4 large apples to achieve 4 cups. I also used the micro.this time stirring every couple minutes. No chance of burning on the bottom that way.

Time 45m

Yield 1 9inch pie, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 cups diced apples
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 cup sugar, depending on sweetness of apples, to taste
2 -4 tablespoons cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg, to your taste
1 teaspoon cinnamon, to your taste
1 cup apple juice or 1 cup water, if you don't have juice, try to have juice, it adds to the flavor

Steps:

  • Sprinkle lemon juice over apples in saucepan.
  • Mix next four ingredients together and add to apples.
  • Mix well.
  • Add very hot juice to pan, (I microwave juice for 2 minutes) cook, stirring constantly until thickened.
  • Remove from heat and cool.
  • Fill a well chilled 9 inch pastry lined pan and cover with top crust.
  • Bake on lowest rack at 425* for 10 minutes, and finish baking on center rack until bubbling, about 20 minutes more.
