I got this recipe from a dear friend who was Mennonite. She introduced me to their wonderful home style cooking. Her wedding dinner, which I attended, was an old fashioned farm picnic complete with big platters of home fried chicken and corn on the cob. Instead of a wedding cake they served pies of all sorts. This is one of the pie recipes she gave me from her wedding dinner. Its easy and very good. I like it best made with peaches or pineapple, but any canned fruit will work. USE REGULAR CANNED FRUIT, not pie filling. Home canned or store bought canned are both fine.
