Apple Pie (Filling) in a Jar image

My children's school used this recipe as a fundraiser at Thanksgiving. It went over really well! The recipe is from a friend's 4H cookbook. I used it to make apple crisp. Easy and yummy! Can be doubled.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover apples. I made a double batch and froze half of it for later. I can't wait to try it in my next apple pie!
