BLUEBERRY PIE FILLING



Blueberry Pie Filling image

The scent of blueberry pie bubbling away in the oven is comforting and familiar, especially in high summer, when pie baking can become a daily event. But just imagine that summery smell, and taste, in deepest winter. This pie filling, which uses cornstarch as a thickener, has a shelf life of about nine months, so the best of summer can be yours in the winter, too.

Provided by Cathy Barrow

Categories     dessert

Time 1h

Yield 2 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup sugar
1/2 cup cornstarch
Juice of two lemons
4 pints blueberries
1 teaspoon almond extract, optional
4 tablespoons Grand Marnier or other orange liqueur, optional

Steps:

  • Fit a large pot with a rack, or line with a folded kitchen towel. Fill 2/3 with water and bring to a boil. Add 2 one-quart canning jars and boil for 10 minutes. Jars may be left in the warm water in the pot until ready to be filled. (Alternatively, you can sterilize jars by running them through a dishwasher cycle, leaving them there until ready to fill.)
  • Place canning rings in a small saucepan, cover with water and bring to a boil. Turn off heat and add lids to soften their rubber gaskets. Rings and lids may be left in the water until jars are filled.
  • In a large heavy pot, combine 1 cup water with sugar, cornstarch and lemon juice, and whisk until smooth. Bring to a boil and add berries; the mixture will look gloppy. Smash some of the berries with a potato masher or the back of a spoon. Return mixture to a boil for 1 minute. Add extract and liqueur, if using, and stir well.
  • Remove warm jars from pot and bring water back to a boil. Ladle hot filling into jars just up to the base of the neck, leaving 1 inch at the top. Wipe jar rims clean with a damp towel. Place lids on jars, screw on rings and lower jars back into the pot of boiling water. The water should cover the jars; if not, add more. Boil jars for 30 minutes. Transfer jars to a folded towel and allow to cool for 12 hours; you should hear them making a pinging sound as they seal.
  • Test the seals by removing rings and lifting jars by the flat lid. If the lid releases, the seal has not formed. Unsealed jars should be refrigerated and used within a month, or reprocessed. (Rings and jars may be reused, but a new flat lid must be used each time jars are processed.) To reprocess, reheat filling to boiling point (as in Step 3), then continue as before.

BLUEBERRY LAVENDER PIE FILLING FOR CANNING



Blueberry Lavender Pie Filling for Canning image

Enjoy a taste of summer in the middle of the winter with this easy canning recipe. The following is for one quart jar, which easily fills one pie. Multiply it to use as many berries as you can get your hands on. I also add fresh lavender flowers since I've got a great local lavender farm, but if you do, please be careful to use them sparingly as they can quickly overpower the berry taste. If you are unsure on how to use lavender, read up online first. *DO NOT SUBSTITUTE CLEAR JEL*! This is important. You probably won't find it at your local grocery store, but you can easily order it online. I found mine at a specialty candy and cake decorating store.

Time 1h15m

Yield 1 quart, 8-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

5 cups blueberries
1/4 cup water
3/4 cup sugar
3 tablespoons Clear Jel
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon fresh lavender blossoms (optional)

  • Please read up on proper canning practices before you begin this recipe. This is intended to be used with a water bath canner. Sterilize your jars, rings and lids while you prepare the filling.
  • Stem, wash and sort your berries well. Measure and set aside.
  • Measure the water, sugar, Clear Jel, lemon juice and lavender into a heavy pot and heat on medium high.
  • Stir or whisk vigorously to prevent lumps. Continuously stir so the mixture doesn't scorch onto the bottom. The mixture will start to thicken quickly. Boil for a minute.
  • Add the berries and stir to coat, cooking until the mixture returns to a boil. Boil for 5 minutes.
  • Carefully ladle the hot filling into your hot sterilized quart jars. Wipe the rims and place rubber sealed lids and rings onto your jars. Process in the water bath canner for 30 minutes.
  • Remove the jars from the canner and allow to cool slowly. Once they have cooled, the lids should seal and will not pop up. Remove the rings, wipe the jars, label and date and store in a cool, dark place for up to one year. Share with the people you love.

  • If you want a sweeter filling, add more sugar. You can also add a bit of lemon juice or zest for a tart flavor.
  • To make the filling ahead of time, simply refrigerate it for up to 3 days. When you're ready to use it, let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before baking.
