You should prepare your favorite pie filling according to the recipe and use whichever thickener is called for. However, if you have a particular thickener you would like to use, check out our Pie Thickener Chart for the ratios to use based on your fruit. Store-bought jam may get a bit thick during the baking and produce more of a Pop Tart-like treat and a Pie Pop, but hey, that doesn't sound bad either! Happy baking! Kye@KAF
