We’ve all seen those ubiquitous cookie mixes, cake mixes, and brownie mixes layered in jars to give as gifts, but what about pie in a jar?
Well, not a whole pie. (Those are super cute, but they also look super labor-intensive.)
How about just the pie filling?
I was looking for a way to use up some of the many (many, MANY) apples I have on hand—from my back yard tree, my CSA and my foraging friend—and stumbled upon a recipe for preserved apple pie filling. What a great idea!
And with my peeler-corer-slicer, it’s pretty quick work.
Do you think it would be tacky to package these with coupons for Pillsbury refrigerated pie dough? 
Total Price: $1.16 each for 7 pints
