JEANINE'S SUGAR-FREE MINCEMEAT PIE
I have not tried this recipe. I got this recipe from Jeanine's Sugar-Free Recipes. Note: This pie is largely various fruit sweeteners, so servings should be small. Diabetics and hypoglycemics may find it is too much sweetness for their body chemistry.

Steps:
- Pare and dice 3 cups apples into a saucepan. Add raisins, currants, and apple juice concentrate. Wash the orange thoroughly, and finely grate the peel into the apple mixture.

Tips:
- Use a food processor to mince the dried fruit and nuts. This will save you time and effort.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can chop the dried fruit and nuts by hand. Just be sure to chop them finely.
- Use a variety of dried fruits and nuts in your mincemeat. This will give your pie a more complex flavor and texture.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices. A little bit of cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves can go a long way in enhancing the flavor of your mincemeat.
- Let your mincemeat rest for at least 24 hours before using it. This will allow the flavors to meld together and develop.
- When you're ready to bake your pie, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Bake your pie for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
