Pie Filling......any fruit works

I found some frozen huckleberries that needed used, so I broke the big canning recipe down to a normal sized batch.  

Pie Filling
2 c. sugar
1 c. water
1/2 t. salt 
1/2 t. nutmeg
1/2 t. cinnamon
Cook the above ingredients in a saucepan until dissolved.  
Add:  8 to 10 c. fruit to mixture.
Mix together and stir into the mixture:  
1/2 c. regular clear jel
1/2 c. water
2 T. lemon juice
Cook stirring ocassionaly, until thickened. It is now ready to use or bottle.  If canning water bath 30 minutes for pints or quarts at 2300 feet above sea level (adjust according to your location).  This will make about 3 quarts of pie filling.
