Freezer Peach Pie Filling

Cook Time: 55 Minutes Ready In: 3 Hours 10 Minutes
Yields: 8 servings

"Peach filling is prepared ahead of time and frozen inside a pie plate. When ready to bake, simply place it in a crust-filled pie plate of the same size, and bake."
INGREDIENTS:
2 1/2 cups sliced peaches
3/4 cup white sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch 1 tablespoon MINUTE Tapioca

DIRECTIONS:
1. Place sliced peaches in a bowl with sugar, cornstarch, tapioca, and nutmeg. Toss until evenly coated and sugar is mostly dissolved.

Once frozen solid, remove peaches from pie plate, with foil, and transfer to a zipper locked plastic bag for later use. When ready to use, line a pie plate with prepared crust and place frozen peaches on top.
