This is the original recipe. I made it more like a cobbler (using no bottom crust at all to save on calories). Also, I used 1 tsp of apple pie spice in place of the cinnamon. It's rustic and homey and legal!!

Tips for Making the Best Diabetic Apple Pie:

  • Choose the right apples: Use a variety of apples that will hold their shape when baked, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Braeburn.
  • Use a sugar substitute: You can use any type of sugar substitute that you like, but make sure to use a granulated sugar substitute so that it will blend evenly into the filling.
  • Don't overfill the pie crust: The filling will expand as it bakes, so don't fill the pie crust too full or it will spill over.
  • Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling: This will ensure that the pie is cooked through and that the filling is thick and syrupy.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving: This will give the filling time to set and will make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Diabetic apple pie is a delicious and satisfying dessert that can be enjoyed by people with diabetes and non-diabetics alike. By following these tips, you can make a diabetic apple pie that is both healthy and delicious.
