Put new lids on jars and tighten rings. Place in a canner. Add enough hot water to canner to come to jar necks. Cover canner and bring to a boil. Lower heat to keep at a gentle boil. Boil for 20 minutes. Remove from canner and let cool on counter. When they are cool, check for seal by pressing on lids. If they are pulled down tight, they are sealed and you may remove the rings and store on a self. If not, store in refrigerator and use within a week. Makes about 5-1/2 quarts.

    This is one of my favorite Apple Pie recipes. I'm not a big apple pie fan, but this one I really like. I made a pie and froze the rest. Hopefully it freezes well. I'll let you know after christmas. - 12/7/08
