Pie baked in a glass jar
Recipe type: Pie
Cuisine: American
Serves: 4 jars
Ingredients
  • For the crust
  • 1 recipe for a double crust pie (artofthepie.com)
  • For the filling (fills 4 ½ pint jars)
  • 2 C peeled and diced apples
  • 2 T sugar- brown or white or mix
  • 2 T flour
  • 2 tsp. cinnamon
  • 1 T butter, melted, for brushing on top crust
  • 1 T sugar for sprinkling on top crust
Instructions
  1. Make the crust. Roll out the dough on a well-floured surface. Use the outer ring from the lid of the jar to cut out 4 circles of dough for the top of the pies.
  2. Use the remaining dough to cut 4 circles, 6 inches in diameter (use a plate as a guide) and line the ½ pint glass jars with each circle, leaving a ½ inch rim at the top.
  3. Make the filling by mixing together the apples, sugar, flour and cinnamon.
  4. Fill the jar with the filling and fit the top crust on top of the filling and seal the top and bottom crusts with a fork or your finger. Make a vent in the top and brush the top crust with melted butter, and sprinkle with sugar. Seal each jar with its metal lid.
  5. Pies can be stored in the freezer for 3 weeks.
  6. If baking pies fresh, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Bake 40 to 45 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly. If baking pies that have been frozen, bring them to room temperature before placing in the oven.
