Sugar Free Apple Pie image

This is the vest!! Found this recipe 26 years ago. It was first dessert I made after becoming a Type 1 diabetic. The secret is using apple juice as the sweetener. Equals 1 1/2 fruit exchanges, 1 bread exchange and 2 fat exchanges

Time 1h

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 cups sliced peeled apples (sweet varieties are best)
1/2 cup frozen apple juice concentrate, undiluted
1 1/2-2 teaspoons cornstarch or 1 teaspoon flour
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice (optional)
1/2-1 teaspoon nutmeg or 1/2-1 teaspoon apple pie spice
1 pastry for double-crust pie

Steps:

  • Divide pastry into 2 parts and roll to fit an 8 0r 9 inch plate. Set aside.
  • Mix apples, apple juice concentrate, thickener and spice and stir until apples are well-coated. Add lemon juice, if desired. Taste 1 piece of apple to check the spice. Pour into the pastry-lined pie pan and top with second crust or pastry strips.
  • Seal the edges and cut slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
  • Bake at 425° for 40-45 minutes, until golden brown.
  • Serve warm or cold.
