Jalapeno Pepper Jelly
4 medium red jalapeno peppers (up to 6 peppers) 3/4 cup red bell pepper -- chopped 6 cups sugar 2 1/2 cups cider vinegar 2 packages liquid pectin (3 oz. each)
1) Remove most of the seeds from the jalapeno peppers and chop coarsely. You should have 1/4 cup. In a blender or food processor, whirl all of the peppers until finely ground. Place ground vegetables and any juice in a heavy-bottomed 8 to 10 quart pan. Stir in sugar and vinegar until well blended. 2) Bring to a full rolling boil over high heat, stirring constantly. Stir in pectin all at once. Return to a full rolling boil; then boil, stirring for 1 minute. Remove from heat and skim off any foam. 3) Ladle hot jelly into hot, sterilized half-pint jars, leaving 1/4" headspace. Wipe rims and threads clean; top with hot lids, then firmly screw on bands. Process in boiling water canner for 5 minutes. You can also use paraffin instead of processing in boiling water. Use jam within one year of canning.

from aprilb CrabApple Jelly
crabapples, washed and stems removed
The day before place fruit in a heavy kettle. Add enough water just to cover. Bring to a boil, simmer gently until fruit is tender. Strain fruit through a jelly bag or cheesecloth. The next day, boil the juice for 10 minutes. Add 1 cup of sugar for each cup of juice. Bring mixture a boil again, and boil for 20 minutes or until a drop on a cooled plate sets. Pour into hot sterilized jars. Pour 2 layers of parfin wax, tilting the second one around edges to completely seal in jelly. A small length of string may be placed in between layers to make removal of wax easier.

Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to medium and boil mixture gently until slightly thickened, stirring occasionally. Do not over cook. Pour into hot sterilized jars half pint or pint. Leaving 1/4 inch head space. Wipe jars and rims. Fix on lids and rings. Seal tight. Process in a boiling water bath (covered by 2 inches of water) for 10 minutes. Remove from canner. Place on a table and cover with a towel and walk away leave undisturbed for 24 hours. Check for seal , remove rings, label and store in a cool dark place. For more color you can add a few drops of red food color to the batch. This is so good in the middle of the winter when it is 40 below and no one wants to go outside. NOTE: only work with a maximum of 6 cups of juice at a time.

I made cherry pie filling last summer, and successfully doubled this recipe. We're going camping, and I am taking one of the quarts of cherry filling to make:
Cherry Enchiladas Soften flour tortillas by wrapping in foil and heating over low flame or coals . Spoon cherry filling into each and roll, as for enchilada. Make a syrup of brown sugar, white sugar, water, cinnamon, and a pat of two of butter. Heat this in a wide skillet over medium coals, lay the filled tortillas in, and heat gently, spooning syrup over.

I got this recipe from a friend. It is delicious.
Canned Apple Pie Filling
4 1/2 cups Sugar 1 Cup Corn starch 2 teaspoons cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon Nutmeg 10 cups of water 3 tablespoons Lemon juice
Mix sugar, corn starch, cinnamon, nutmeg and water. Cook until thick. Then add the lemon juice in and stir. Put apple slices in jars. Pour mixture over the apple slices and seal the jars. Process in boiling water bath for 15 minutes. Makes about 7 quarts.
Now, if you have favourite ingredients that you add to your apple pie that I didn't list, add them in. Won't affect anything.
