Notes
Preserving Berry Pie Filling
It is super easy to can this pie filling. Sterilize mason jars and lids. After the blueberry pie filling has thickened up, add to the sterilized jar, wipe the rim, and close the lids. Put lids on and process in a water bath canner for 20 minutes. It is a great shortcut to get ahead of the pie-making game during apple season.How long does blueberry pie filling last in the fridge?
A berry pie filling will last in the refrigerator approximately 7 days when stored in an airtight container.However, it will last up to 6 months when frozen. To freeze, just place the cooled pie filling into a freezer-safe container such as a freezer bag, squeeze out the excess air and lay flat in the freezer. This will give you more storage room in your freezer and allow the filling to thaw quickly and evenly.
Once thawed, use it in your favorite recipe.
To Reheat the pie filling just warm it up in the microwave in 1 minute intervals until warmed through.
