Some things you have to do every day. Eating seven apples on Saturday night instead of one a day just isn't going to get the job done.
[Jim Rohn]

 

Watermelon --it's a good fruit. You eat, you drink, you wash your face.
[ Enrico Caruso]

Fruits are acceptable gifts, because they are the flower of commodities, and admit of fantastic values being attached to them. If a man should send to me to come a hundred miles to visit him, and should set before me a basket of fine summer-fruit, I should think there was some proportion between the labor and the reward.
[ Ralph Waldo Emerson]

Ingredients

1 1/2 cup dried apricots

6 tbsp sugar
1 can crushed pineapple (8 oz)
1 1/2 tbsp cornstarch
1 salt
3 tbsp butter
1 pastry for 8 double pie crust



 

Preparation

This filling is intense and sweet-tart, like the traditional
apricot-pineapple jam.

With knife or kitchen shears, cut each apricot into quarters. Put
apricots in saucepan, add water, bring to boil, cover and cook over
medium heat 10 minutes. Add sugar and cook 5 minutes more. Drain,
reserving 3/4 cup juice. Set apricots aside.

Drain crushed pineapple, reserving 1/4 cup juice. Set pineapple aside.

In mixing bowl, dissolve cornstarch in reserved pineapple juice. Add
reserved apricot juice. Put mixed juices in saucepan, add dash salt
and cook over medium heat until mixture thickens, stirring
continually.

Mix drained apricots and pineapple thoroughly. Mix with thickened
juices and pour into unbaked pie shell. Dot with butter. Cover with
top crust, crimp edges and pierce with fork. Bake at 400'F. 25
minutes. Makes 6-8 servings.
