Freezer Apple Pie Filling


I had planned on canning some apple pie filling this year, until I realized that freezing it is MUCH easier! I made these two bags up during Walker's nap time and the best part is there's no cooking involved!

Freezer Apple Pie Filling
*this recipe is for one bag of filling which will make one pie.

5-6 apples peeled and sliced thin
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 C sugar
1/4 C flour
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp nutmeg
2 tbsp butter cut into chunks

1. Place butter in freezer.
2. Mix all ingredients except apples, butter and lemon juice in a gallon freezer bag and shake until combined. 
3. Peel and slice apples.
4. Coat apples in lemon juice.



5. Add apples and butter to sugar mixture and shake until combined.
6. Remove air from bag, label and freeze flat.

  1. Thanks for the recipe! I just put four bags in my freezer this morning and I am going to be so glad when holiday pie baking rolls around.
