Canning apple pie filling is a great shortcut to get ahead of the pie-making game during apple season. This recipe makes seven quart jars of filling for apple pies. Two quarts make a 9-inch pie. You'll need to prepare seven 1-quart canning jars, with rings and lids.

4 ½ cups white sugar
1 cup cornstarch
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
10 cups water
2 teaspoons salt
3 tablespoons lemon juice
2 drops yellow food coloring
6 pounds apples

Directions

Mix sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a large pan. Add water and salt and mix well. Bring to a boil and cook until thick and bubbly. Remove from heat and add lemon juice and food coloring.
Sterilize canning jars, lids, and rings by boiling them in a large pot of water.

Fill jars with hot syrup, and gently remove air bubbles with a knife.
Put lids on and process in a water bath canner for 20 minutes.
