Ingredients

  • 5 cups peeled and sliced apples
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 ½ cups water
  • ¼ cup cornstarch

Instructions

  • First peel and slice your apples. Do larger slices of apples or they will become mushy.
  • Place diced apples, brown sugar, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg in Instant Pot. Pour in water, and gently stir.
  • Place the pressure cooker lid on, and set valve to sealing. Do a 1 minute manual high pressure cook, followed by a quick release. Or for firmer apples do a 0 minute cook time.
  • Release pressure once cook time is up, and then remove 1/2 cup of the liquid. Mix in the cornstarch to the liquid.
  • Turn the Instant Pot to saute, and pour in the liquid with cornstarch, and stir until the mixture thickens. This will take 1-2 minutes.
  • Once thickened, turn off the saute feature, and remove the apple pie filling. Then use as you would like.

Notes

Firmer Apple Cook Time: If you want a thicker apple, do 0 minute cook time with quick release. If you want apples a bit more broken down then stick to the 1 minute cook time.
Types of Apples: Use any baking apple you would like. You will find doing a variety of apples or two different kinds will bring tons of flavor to the pie filling.
Storage: You will want to store your pie filling in the fridge for 3-4 days. Or you can freeze the pie filling in a proper freezer friendly container.
Ways to Use: You can use the pie filling for baking pies, topping oatmeal, pairing with yogurt, topping with granola. Pair your pie filling with ice cream as a treat. There are so many ways besides making a pie you can enjoy this apple pie filling.
