Simple and Delicious Sugar Free Apple Pie Recipe

So simple and fast to make that even after a busy day we can whip up a healthy all natural sugar free apple pie like this one in minutes.

Apple pie is an iconic American dessert that has a long and fascinating history. The first recorded recipe for apple pie dates back to 1381 in England, but it was not until the early 18th century that it became a staple of American cuisine. Today, there are many variations of apple pie, including recipes that use no added sweetener at all and only rely on the natural sweetness of the fruit.

One of the earliest versions of apple pie was called a “coffin” pie. It was a pie that was cooked in a pastry shell, much like modern-day pies, but the pastry was much thicker and denser than what we are used to today. These pies were often filled with meat, as well as fruits and spices, and were a popular dish among the upper classes.

As apple cultivation became more widespread in the United States in the 18th century, apple pie became a common dessert in many households. By the early 19th century, it had become so popular that it was often served as a breakfast food. The combination of sweet apples, spices, and a flaky crust made it a satisfying and filling meal that could be eaten any time of day.

Over the years, many variations of apple pie have emerged, including those that use no added sweetener. These recipes rely on the natural sweetness of the fruit to create a delicious and healthy dessert. One popular recipe is simply called “no sugar added apple pie” and uses apples, cinnamon, and a small amount of flour to create a thick and flavorful filling. The crust is made with almond flour and coconut oil, making it a gluten-free and dairy-free option for those with dietary restrictions.

In addition to no sugar added apple pie, there are many other variations of pie that use only natural sweeteners. Cottage cheese pie, for example, is a popular dessert that is made with a filling of cottage cheese, eggs, and fruit. The fruit can be anything from apples to berries to peaches, depending on the season and personal preference.

Other popular pies that use natural sweeteners include cherry pie, lemon cream pie, and lemon tart. These desserts are often made with a combination of fresh fruit, eggs, and dairy products like cream cheese or sour cream. They are rich and flavorful without the need for added sugars, making them a healthier option for those who want to indulge in a sweet treat without sacrificing their health.

In conclusion, apple pie has a long and fascinating history that has evolved over the centuries. Today, there are many variations of this classic dessert, including recipes that use no added sweetener at all and rely on the natural sweetness of the fruit. Whether you prefer a traditional apple pie or a more modern twist, there is no denying the enduring popularity of this beloved dessert.

How to make Apple pie

  2. Work the butter and egg into the flour until it comes together by hand. A lot depends on the moisture content of the flour. If the dough is too dry and flaky, pour a little bit more water over the mixture. If it still sticks to the bowl or onto our hands after ten minutes of kneading then add a bit of more flour to it.Flour-butter-mixed-dough-gp-SunCakeMom
  3. Place the dough ball into the fridge until chilled or at least until we finish shredding the apples.
  4. Peel and shred the apples. Hold them at the core without shredding hands so keep the core and shred it around.
  5. Sprinkle the apples with lemon juice so they won’t go brown. Add the cinnamon and work it together.
  6. Get the dough out of the fridge and divide it into two pieces. A bigger and a smaller piece: ⅓ and ⅔.
  7.  On a lightly floured surface, roll the bigger piece of dough into the form and size of our baking tray.Pie-crust-process-gp-SunCakeMom-3
  8. Place disk onto the tray, fit or tweak it if needed.Pie-crust-process-gp-SunCakeMom-4
  9. Put the filling on top of the dough.Sugar-free-apple-pie-process-11-SunCakeMom

F.A.Q.

Can a diabetic eat apple pie?

Diabetic people can eat all the unreasonably sugary starchy things that people who hasn’t yet developed diabetes eat. This is why they take insulin. If someone doesn’t want to develop type 2 diabetes though best to consume carbs in moderation and in as natural way as its possible.
