This is by far the best Apple Pie filling I have ever tasted! And using Stevia drops makes it a healthier choice if you are watching your sugar intake.

Apples are almost in season right now (August-November) so we decided to go apple picking. The farm we visited has about 2 weeks left until the apples are ripe, but we did find a few that were ready to be picked and baked!

 We made a large batch of this apple pie filling and made mini pies. Half was later pureed for apple sauce and later used as filling in these homemade apple pie pop-tarts.

      Let me know what you think after you make them Phoebe! I filled a 20oz mason jar with the filling plus a bit more left over. It yields about 3 cups.
