jar pies/cakes

it talked about freezing & baking later. I didn't. I had the pint wide mouth Mason jars.. Made up the crust.. it took me about 3 pies worth of crust. pressed it inside the 6 pint widemouth jars...tried to make it even leaving some room at the top will need for top crust. I used a 3# bag of apples, pared, sliced filled, squished, etc as many apples in each as I could then added the syrup from (used 1/3 of amounts for recipe) topped with a crust with a hole cut in to vent.
www.astray.com/recipes/?show=Lucy%20dykstra's%20apple%20pie%20in%20a%20jar
the directions I used are on www.littlebirdiesecrets a blog post titled pie-in-a-jar, my new obession dated Feb 27, 2009 (sorry having trouble getting my computer to actually bring it up right now). Much later in the blogs beneath the directions 1 lady ask about sending it to your hubby in Iraq... she said she had success with it. so I decided to try it.
I baked the apples in the syrup, w/crust in the jars about 40 mins.. til the crust looked golden brown. I had them setting on a cookie sheet to make easier to remove from oven and keep any run over from the bottom of the oven.
AS Soon as I took them from the oven I put the canning lid on to seal them..carefully wiped the edges so I could get the ring on, let them cool. They sealed up nicely. checked the lid to make sure there was not movement the next day. wrapped them in bubble wrap, placed them in the center of a box added other edibles to pad them & to keep them from shifting in the box and took them to the post office. The recipe talks about them having a several month shelf life.. but I don't think they lasted that long when the ship got the box.
Hope you can get these website to work for you.

you are welcome please note... it's been advised to slightly bake the crust before adding apples/syrup to finish baking them.

and additional note based on some advice others who have tried this ..
They have had some success with baking the crust in the jars for a little while before adding the apples/syrup mixture.. slight baking the crust to a slight golden color..makes the crust more crust like and less like pie dough. -
