Can I use frozen blueberries to make canned blueberry pie filling? Thank you

Expert Response

Yes you can. Thaw the berries first. I actually like making my pie fillings with frozen fruit because you drive out most of the air when freezing them and it results in less siphoning when canned.

Good luck and enjoy your pie filling.

Thanks for using Ask Extension
