EASY Apple Pie Filling to Make Ahead and Freeze!

[@lynnereeder7117]

Everyone, I have been using Marie’s filling for the longest time since her first posting. It is so easy and worth the pre-cooking. I have used all Honey Crisp apples at times, and have mixed Honey Crisp in with the Granny Smith sometimes. I like the Honey Crisp the best because you can find them by the bag. Once you have put the pie together and before you use the egg wash, put your whole pie in the freezer for 15 to 20 min. (She has that posted in a recipe as well). The pie crust and filling all cook together at the same temp. Trust me, she knows what she is doing! Thanks Marie!

Thank you Lynne!! This is so helpful for everyone! I pinned your comment so it stays at the top! I need to try more Honeycrisp - think I’ll do half and half next time! Just noticing im using exclamation points after every sentence … you can tell I’m so happy about everything you wrote! Big hugs Lynne. I so appreciate your feedback ❤️, Marie

Thank you

[@marieskitchen]

Hi! You’re welcome! Thanks for watching 😊, Marie

[@islandgal500]

Have one large batch of apples from my tree still to do and I used a similar method except I used some corn starch instead of flour. Will try it with flour next. Thanks for your timely videos that give us techniques when we need them (Autumn = apples).

[@marieskitchen]

Hi! Thanks for watching 😊 Corn starch works just as well! Really just a matter of preference. You’re so lucky to have fresh apples from your own tree! Yes, I’m trying to keep the videos timely, so glad you appreciate that 🥰 Big hugs, Marie

[@stevenmacintyre5912]

[@stevenmacintyre5912]

[@marieskitchen]

[@KeithSt-Amand]

Those apples look so good I don't know your audience could sleep threw that smell mmmmmm lol

[@marieskitchen]

Ha! She sleeps through most of my filming because she knows I won’t give her any! 🤣 Poor thing. She waits for my kids to get home and then begs them for scraps!

[@kathleenwalker7715]

Thank you for sharing this recipe. Would you please help with double recipe for pie crust?

[@marieskitchen]

Hi Kathleen! Do you mean two pie crusts - one for bottom and one for top? If so, I recommend making two separate crusts, one after the other. When you try your make two at once, I find it is harder to evenly mix in butter and water. Hope that’s helps! If I misunderstood your question just let me know ❤️, Marie

[@kathleenwalker7715]

@ thank you! I will make 2 separate crusts. I just bought a 9.5 pie plate. Apparently I didn’t roll it out enough.

[@marieskitchen]

How deep is the 9.5 inch plate? If it’s close to 2 inches, then you will probably need 1.5 crusts for the top and bottom. The easiest way to do that right now is to make 3 crusts and then split 1 in half (giving half to each of the other 2 crusts). Sorry if this is confusing 😅 I’m going to post a recipe for 1.5 crusts for just this reason but haven’t gotten to it yet. Stay tuned, Marie

[@kathleenwalker7715]

@ thank you so much. I will look for the video! Your recipe for pie crust lid the best.

[@strugglebytheday1257]

Love everything about you

[@sailorgirl2017]

Hi Marie. I've been meaning to ask you this...what would the salt measurement be if it was sea salt? I know they are different. I live remotely and a box of Diamond Kosher salt, which I can only get the coarse, is $13-15.

[@marieskitchen]

Hi! If it’s fine sea salt, then 1 tsp Kosher is equal to a little less of the sea salt, or around 3/4 tsp. Kosher salt is fairly coarse (larger grains) so you can’t fit as much into a teaspoon. Otherwise, you can use them interchangeably. So I would just use a “scant” 1/2 teaspoon (not quite full to the top) sea salt in place of the Kosher salt. Hope that helps! Hugs, Marie

[@sandrasealy7411]

How long do you cook the apples?

[@marieskitchen]

Hi Sandra! Thanks for watching! I cook them about 20 minutes. Sorry I did not make it clear 🤪 The full recipe is in the description box below and on my website. Hope that helps ❤️, Marie
