Apple Pie Filling
Servings: 8
Ingredients

- 1/3 cup Sugar
- 3 tbsp Water
- 2 tbsp Butter
- 1 tsp Cinnamon
- 1 tbsp + 1 tsp Cornstarch
- 2 tbsp Water
Instructions
- Peel, core, and chop or slice apples. Cut apples into 1/2-inch cubes or 1/4-inch slices.
- Melt butter and cinnamon over medium heat. Stir in apples, sugar & water.
- Cover and cook stirring occasionally for 4-6 minutes or until very slightly softened.
- In a small dish combine cornstarch and 2 tablespoons water. Add to the pan while stirring and continue to cook until apples are soft (not mushy) and filling is thickened.

Notes
- Different varieties of apples may need less (or more) cooking time. Cook just until tender crisp checking the apples with a fork.
- Some apples are juicier than others. If you would like your filling thicker, combine 1 tablespoon cornstarch with 1 tablespoon water. Add a little at a time while the mixture is boiling until you reach desired consistency.
