Apple Pie Filling ~ A Great Do-Ahead!

  

Apple Pie Filling
10 medium Granny Smith apples peeled, quartered, 
   cored, and sliced (about 3 cups)    
6 tablespoons water
6 tablespoons butter, room temperature
1 cup granulated sugar
4 teaspoons cinnamon
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

Directions:
In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, combine the sliced apples and water. Cook for 6 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the butter.

Meanwhile, whisk together the sugar, cinnamon, cornstarch, and nutmeg in a medium bowl.

After the butter has melted, add the sugar mixture to the saucepan (over the apples). Stir constantly for 2 minutes, or until the sauce thickens.

Remove from heat and let the sauce sit for 5 minutes.

After the sauce has cooled completely, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week or the freezer for up to 3 months. (Be sure to label and date the container.)
