Any Home Bakers Here?

When I make lemon meringue pie, any extra custard or meringue gets the Spoon Treatment. That is, I eat it off a spoon.

That would be me too, as I love lemon.

I will cut a lemon and eat it.

It is a bit tough to get the thickening correct with apples. Some are wetter than others.

Have you tried clear jel? You can get a feel for how much to use based on how wet the apples are in the bowl after you add the sugar, spices and a pinch of salt.

Thanks for trying to help. Mostly this was just an experiment to use up the last of the canning.

My recipe was just a jar of apples and a jar of apple sauce, plus sugar, spices, and tapioca starch cooked until thickened and then baked in the crust until done. I probably just didn't add enough starch.

I'll bake a "proper" apple pie in the fall with fresh apples.

The applesauce is what caused the problem.
