Blip blap blop Apple Pie Filling
Ingredients:
3-5 ml salt
750 ml apples (2 medium/large OR 3 small)
80 ml sugar
15 ml cornstarch
135 ml cold water
5 ml lemon juice
15 ml margarine
1-2 ml cinnamon
Method:
1. Fill a medium bowl half full with cold or ice water. Dissolve 3-5 ml salt in the water. 2. Peel apples and cut into quarters. Remove cores. Keep salt in water until apples are finished to prevent browning. 3. In a separate bowl, stir together sugar and cornstarch. Stir in 125 ml cold water and lemon juice. Stir until well combined. 4. Rinse the salt water from apple quarters and slice fairly thin into a large saucepan. Add all of the sugar/ cornstarch mixture to the apples in the saucepan, making sure to scrape the bowl clean with a rubber spatula. 5. Bring just to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat and simmer gently for 2-3 min until liquid thickens and apple slices are fork tender. 6. Place in foil lined pans. Dot with margarine, sprinkle with cinnamon. 7. Wrap. Package must be air tight with no rips or tears to avoid drying out. Freeze.
Pie Time: 1. Unwrap filling and set into pastry lined pan. 2. Sprinkle with more spice if desired. 3. Put on top crust – seal edges with water and finish with a decorative edge. (Fluting: fork/spoon impressions). Cut vents in top. 4. Bake at 400° F (200° C) for 40-50 min. If crust edges begin to overbrown, cover them carefully with foil.
