Steps:
- Prepare a water bath canner, canning jars and lids.
- Peel, core and slice apples. Splash lemon juice on the slices as you go to prevent browning (you'll still need a full 1/2 cup of lemon juice to add to the filling at the end, even though some is used here).
- In two batches of 6 cups each, blanch apple slices in a small amount (roughly 1 quart) of boiling water for 1 minute. Strain apple slices and keep them covered and warm while you prepare the filling.
- Mix all remaining ingredients EXCEPT LEMON JUICE in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil and then add the lemon juice. Return to a boil and cook for 1 minute.
- Add in the hot blanched apple slices and stir to incorporate them.
- Fill canning jars (quarts or pints), leaving 1 full inch of headspace. Be careful to remove air bubbles and adjust headspace before capping with 2 part canning lids.
- Adjust lids to finger tight and process in a water bath canner for 25 minutes. Turn off the canner and allow the jars to sit for 5 to 10 minutes before removing them.
- Allow the jars to cool to room temperature before checking seals. Store any unsealed jars in the refrigerator and use within 2 weeks. Sealed jars will keep in the pantry for up to 18 months (possibly longer).

APPLE PIE FILLING FOR CANNING
I'm not sure where the original recipe came from. My friend's Mom was a distributor for Ultra Gel so I may I got it from her many years ago. Anyway-this has been a fantastic recipe. A lot like a great restrauant pie. Now I know some may not like that but everyone I share this pie with wants the recipe. We use it for pie, ice cream topping, over fresh biscuits or spoon it straight from the jar.
