Time 2h35m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 cups water
¾ cup lemon juice
12 cups fresh serviceberries
3 cups white sugar
1 cup cornstarch

Steps:

  • Bring water and lemon juice to a boil in a large pot; stir in serviceberries. Return mixture to a boil.
  • Whisk sugar and cornstarch together in a bowl. Stir sugar mixture into berries; cook, stirring constantly, until sauce is clear, about 3 minutes.
  • Sterilize jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack pie filling into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids and screw on rings.
  • Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars into the boiling water using a holder. Leave a 2-inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary to bring the water level to at least 1 inch above tops of jars. Bring the water to a rolling boil, cover the pot, and process for 10 minutes.
  • Remove jars from stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.

Time 1h15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 cups saskatoon berries
3/4 cup sugar, granulated
3 tablespoons flour
1/4 cup water
pastry for double-crust pie
2 tablespoons lemon juice

  • Bake in 425F oven for 15 minutes; reduce heat to 350F oven and bake 35-45 minutes longer or until golden brown.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe and fresh Saskatoon berries: The quality of your berries will greatly impact the flavor of your pie filling. Look for berries that are plump, deep purple in color, and have a sweet aroma.
  • Use a large pot: As the berries cook, they will release a lot of liquid. Using a large pot will help to prevent the liquid from boiling over.
  • Stir the berries frequently: This will help to prevent them from sticking to the bottom of the pot and burning.
  • Add sugar gradually: Start with a small amount of sugar and add more to taste. This will help to prevent the filling from becoming too sweet.
  • Let the filling cool completely before using: This will help to thicken the filling and make it easier to work with.

Conclusion:

With its vibrant purple color and sweet-tart flavor, Saskatoon berry pie filling is a delicious and versatile addition to any dessert. Whether you use it to make pies, tarts, or even ice cream, this filling is sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a unique and flavorful pie filling, give Saskatoon berries a try.
