Crockpot Apple Pie Filling

I really love my crockpot.  Have I mentioned that before?  Maybe that’s why I have three of them!  Anyway now onto how to make apple pie filling. 
I quarter my apples and remove the seeds.  I then cut each quarter into four or five slices. 
Place these into your crockpot.  Fill that pot to the brim with apples. 
Now add 2 cups of apple cider and a blend of spices-cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, cardamon, allspice, and a small pinch of ginger.  
Put crockpot on low and cook until apples are tender. 
Add one cup of tapioca pearls and 2 cups of tapioca starch.  Stir well and allow to simmer on low or warm until mixture is thickened.
You can now use, can, or freeze the mixture.  Stay tuned as I make mini apple pies with mine!

    Perfect way to make your own filling without to much added sugar or preservatives. I wonder if you could adapt this recipe to use with other fruits.
