Apple Pie Filling // Water Bath Canning

[@laurashaw9080]

Made apple pie filling for the first time. I am glad I found this video. I added the extra headspace, and it worked great 👍 . Thanks

[@cdavid2486]

Thank you Jeni !! You are always my go-to person when I'm ready to can a product! I appreciate your videos! And pray 🙏 you are nearing 100% recovery.

[@Jeni_Gough]

Thank you so much! 😊

[@suegrigsby3219]

My favorite way to prep apples for pie!

[@KSOCrochet]

This what im doing tomorrow. They look great!

[@Jeni_Gough]

Thank you! Happy canning! 😀

I used this recipe to make apple pie filling with a half bushel of seconds from our local orchard. The apples were HUGE and beautiful with only a few bruises. I think I used EVERY big pot that I own for the different stages of the recipe!😁 And then they all seeped out in the canning process but sealed! In spite of the mess,I got 14 quarts of GORGEOUS delicious apple pie filling!! My husband loves my apple dump cakes. I dump a quart of pie filling in the bottom of a 9×13 pan,sprinkle dry spice cake mix on top,cut a stick of butter into cubes and evenly sprinkle on top,then bake at 350 for 45 minutes! So good with ice cream while warm!!!😊😊🍎🍎🍎🧡

[@Jeni_Gough]

Awesome!! That sounds delicious! 😋

You're such a great teacher! LOOOOVE your apron. Dinner looked interesting and yummy. I love pocket meals.

[@Jeni_Gough]

Thank you! BBQ pork pockets! I had to make something quick, I used my canned smoked pulled pork. 😊

[@sandyclaus2729]

Thanks! 😃

Apple pie one of my favorite fall desserts. Thank you Jeni.

[@Jeni_Gough]

You’re welcome! 😊

[@tinacostner3069]

I did this recipe. I have that book. I didn’t blanch the apples though 😐 I was afraid they would get mushy. They turned out good. I have to make more soon also. Thinking of pints though and cutting the apples smaller like for fried pies. Have a wonderful day!!!!

[@tinacostner3069]

Ps next time I’m doing a 1 1/2 inch head space.

[@Jeni_Gough]

Great idea for small batch hand pies!! I love it! 😃

[@juneauesque]

I hate peeling fruit, and leave the peels on whenever possible. I suppose there's a good reason to not can unpeeled apples? I always leave the peels on when making applesauce, because they dissolve into the sauce. Loved your canning music!

[@Jeni_Gough]

Thank you so much! The peel hold bacteria making them not good for canning. They may mold or could cause a food born illness. 😊

[@lyndaplank4750]

Hi Jenny, just searching your site for pie filings and the apple one looks great. I do have a Question can you just can straight strawberry pie filling?

[@Jeni_Gough]

Yes you can

[@OldEnoughToBeYourFather]

i'll stop by for dessert anytime. any chance of some home made whip cream for that crumble? yum yum.☺

[@Jeni_Gough]

Absolutely!! 😁

[@candacethompson2521]

I have that book. Yay. I am going to be making me some more apple pie filling and peach pie filling, also. Once I was making peach pie filling and needed a few more peaches, that I didn't have so I added a couple cups of rhubarb. It was so delicious, I am doing it again.. enjoy

[@Jeni_Gough]

Peach and rhubarb would be amazing together!! 😀

[@susiewietelman9321]

Jeni, my filing oozed out. I’m so frustrated. I used the Ball book and followed the instructions but it oozed out. They sealed, but are they really sealed? I have 14 pints. 🙈😭

[@Jeni_Gough]

I give 1 1/2 inch headspace with pie filling because clear jel expands and it oozes out. If they sealed, leave them on your counter for a week and check them daily. After a week, they are safe to put away if they are sealed. I agree, it’s frustrating. If you want, you can re process them by putting the filling back into a pan, put clean jars in to sterilize, heat the filling, fill the jars leaving the extra headspace. Hope this helps. 😊

[@susiewietelman9321]

@@Jeni_Gough Thank you so much.

[@janiceabner5250]

Hey Jeni, that apple pie filling looks so delicious and you make it look so easy, I've got the book, my spices, jars and lids, apples all peeled, prepped and in gallon bags in my freezer, just waiting for one of those (not so much pain, feel good) day, and I'm gonna have me some pie filling on my shelf, yours looks so good, makes my mouth water. Apple pie, yum, my favorite. tks Jeni

[@Jeni_Gough]

Thank you! I hope you can get your filling done soon, I wish you well! 😃

[@LawandaFinch]

Woo hoo love to can apple pie filling and watch it being canned! Lol I know I am weird! We are finally getting down to 40 degrees here in North Texas. I am making some soup this weekend. We go from Summer into winter here we never get to much of a Fall here. 😒

[@Jeni_Gough]

Us either! But it’s suppose to be in the 60’s as a high here on Monday!!! I’m so excited!! Total soup day! 😀

[@lyndaw1304]

I tried this recipe yesterday and left the 1 1/2" headspace. Two did not seal and the others are full to the top. I had quite a bit of syphoning. My questions are how do I know if they are sealed or just stuck on and are they safe if they are full to the lid? This was my first try at pie filling

[@Jeni_Gough]

They are full to the top because the filling has expanded, if they are sealed, they are fine. When you open them, the filling drops down. Not sure why you had so much siphoning with 1 1/2 inch headspace.

[@helenlbrewer9977]

What kind of 🍎 apples

[@Jeni_Gough]

Fuji and Gala

[@christinalopez4026]

Ive seen videos on this and they pressure can them,I didnt know you can waterbath them.

[@Jeni_Gough]

It should be water bath canned, pressure canning will over cook the apples and have apple sauce. plus, they are a high acid food. You wouldn’t pressure can apple jam. I haven’t seen pressure canning of apple pie filling, but that is not the preferred method according to USDA or Ball.

[@happyrapture1370]

I canned this recipe this year. It turned out so beautiful. I'm with you on more spice. For us it is extra cinnamon. I cant wait for Thanksgiving to try it out. I did allow 11/2 inch head space and my jars came out perfect. I enjoyed your video, they are gorgeous. God bless

[@Jeni_Gough]

Thank you! I can’t wait for Thanksgiving either! 😀

[@Shelzbells]

That looks so good. Didnt ever think about canning pie filling. I might try it. Is one jar enough for a whole pie?

[@LawandaFinch]

I can quarts. Depends on if your making a deep dish pie. I use two quart jars for deep dish and one jar for regular pie crust.

[@Jeni_Gough]

I use 2 quarts. 😀

[@Shelzbells]

@@Jeni_Gough Thanks Jeni

[@thegreymarchhair564]

Hey Jeni-Jen...It's me...Alana...LOL What type of apples are best for making apple pie...? I want to try my hand at pie filling, you made it look so easy...I shall dive in and see if I do a good job, I just have no idea what type of apples to buy. Blessed Be and Smooches... Alana in Sterling Heights, Michigan.

[@Jeni_Gough]

Hi there!! 😀 I like Fuji or gala for pies, I really don’t care for Granny Smith unless they are mixed with the others. Mixing them for pie filling is usually what I do. I hope you give it a try, you will love it!! 😁
