I made this for parents, many years ago, still do. because it was easy and delicioys
Easy easy easy and delicious, delicious, delicious. Kids thought it was great.
This is a fantastic recipe, thank you very much for sharing. I made it multiple times now, it’s really delightful with peaches as well. In my neck of the woods, ( Florida)there is no apple or peach concentrate to be had. Hence I just use some regular organic juice and simmer it for a while before thickening it with cornstarch. I cut the starch down to 2 tbsp because of its high glycemic index ( 97%), it can spike blood sugar levels for pre diabetics. The pink lady is a fabulous apple, I like them crisp so I just slice them straight into the pie crust. I will try out other fruits but the apple and peach pies are definitely fantastic!
I’ve been making this recipe for years, and the whole family loves it. It’s simple, healthier, and delicious!
I didn’t use Apple Juice concentrate I used diet apple cider and 2 cups of Splenda and cooked apples for only a couple of minutes. I’m going to make this again and this time not cook apples. This should make the Apples slightly more crispy and less soft.
Easy to fallow, fast, taste delicious…
Love it
Followed the recipe exactly except I used granny smith apples. This is an amazing pie and a definitely will do again. Who needs all that processed sugar?
I love this pie. The only thing I changed was less apple concentrate and used more water. This alao helped cut back on the sugar. Also make a sugar free crust with almond flour…… Thanks for the tasty treat
This is the second time ive made this pie i really like it very easy to make
This pie is delicious. I used apple spice instead of only cinnamon & my own sugar free crust recipe.
I followed the recipe exactly. Haven’t tried it yet, but it smells wonderful.
I made this for a social gathering that was attended by a diabetic. My friend was able to eat it and said it was the first time she’d eaten apple pie since she’s been diagnosed. It was a real treat for her and we all found it delicious.
Great and easy. Thank you
i cook the apples longer and i normally overstuff my pie but thats only bc i really love this pie
Used a gluten free pie crust
Oh My ,it smelled and looked lovely but was so over sweet as the concentrate juice was overwhelming. I didn’t offer it to my diabetic friend. I know it was the cause of too much concentrate. Possibly I used a larger can. Be ware of how much you use.
I made this leaving out the apple juice entirely- I added instead a jar of unsweetened applesauce. I also used red delicious apples instead of what the recipe called for. Apple juice is loaded with sugars, so that’s not a very healthy alternative. The unsweetened applesauce worked great for my pie, and made the filling thick and lovely. It’s a much healthier option that has zero added sugars. My crust is made homemade with Earth Balance instead of butter or other unhealthy oils. I didn’t make this particular pie crust to be beautiful- it could’ve been. However, this pie I made for a fast dessert pie for supper.
Wonderful , easy recipe and the taste is excellent
My son is diabetic but he loves Apple pie this sugar free option made him happy and he loved it. I also bought one to a Fourth of July gathering where there were everyone loved it .
So yummy! My whole family loved it! Will for sure make again! Thank you!
