I started this blog so my daughters could find all of our family favourite recipes in one place. It has actually grown into more than just the family favourites but also other recipes we've tried out in our kitchen. I don't like to fill up the post with alot of chatter. Sometimes there's a little story to tell, but usually I like to get right to the point. So this is for them, but hope you find some recipes that you like as well. I'll be sharing a lot of recipes, and along the way you'll find some crafty things and maybe some helpful hints too! Welcome!

Sugar Free Blueberry Apple Pie Filling

This pie filling is naturally sweetened with maple syrup and, of course, the sweetness of the blueberries and apples. No refined sugar! The maple syrup gives it a subtle sweetness, but if you like more sweetness try subbing it with honey.

Ingredients:

2 cups blueberries

2 cups diced apple

1/4 cup maple syrup

1/2 cup water

1 tbsp cornstarch

1 tbsp lemon juice

zest of 1 lemon

In a saucepan, cook the blueberries and apples 6-8 minutes or until the diced apple is tender crisp. Stir in the syrup, lemon juice and zest. Mix the cornstarch with water and pour into the pot. Stir and cook until thickened, 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat to cool. Once cooled you can fill your pie and bake. This one is an 8" skillet pie baked at 350°F for 55-60 minutes.
Makes filling for 1 - 8" pie
