We have done everything we can think of to do with apples. This has been our big project for the week.

We both peeled and cored many, many apples.

We made and froze bags and bags of apple pie filling. We also made some apple empanadas, apple scones, and apple pancakes.
Then we moved on to canning — applesauce and apple butter.

The timing of the whole canning is tricky. I used a timer and a little chart to keep track.

And we got some new tools that made this all easier.

Here are some of the results. Some of you faithful readers will be getting apple butter in the mail. :)
