Instructions

1. Peel, core and chop the apples into 1 inch pieces and place in a large stock pot. Add the sugar and cinnamon and stir until well coated.  Bring to a boil, stirring frequently, then reduce to a simmer, covered, until the apples are somewhat soft and broken down, but large chunks remain (about 15 minutes). Let cool. Make into pie with Basic Pastry, or spoon into 1 qt Ziploc freezer bags and freeze. Voila. Pie filling at the ready.
