Print Recipe

A diabetic-friendly, sugar-free apple pie sweetened naturally with stevia, featuring a flaky whole wheat crust and cinnamon-spiced apple filling. Perfect for those managing blood sugar without sacrificing flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups whole wheat flour (or all-purpose flour)
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 3–4 tablespoons ice-cold water
  • 5 medium apples, peeled, cored, and sliced thin (Granny Smith or Fuji recommended)
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons pure stevia powder (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 egg, beaten (for brushing crust)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine whole wheat flour and salt. Add cold, cubed butter and work into flour using a pastry cutter or fingertips until mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized pieces.
  2. Sprinkle ice-cold water one tablespoon at a time, mixing gently with a fork until dough just comes together. Form dough into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill in fridge for at least 30 minutes.
  3. In a large bowl, toss sliced apples with lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, stevia, and cornstarch until evenly coated. Set aside.
  4. On a lightly floured surface, roll chilled dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a 9-inch pie dish, pressing to fit bottom and sides. Trim excess dough.
  5. Pour apple filling into crust and spread evenly. Fold edges of dough over filling to create a rustic border. Brush crust edges with beaten egg.
  6. Place pie on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 45-50 minutes until crust is golden and filling bubbles. If crust browns too quickly, tent with foil halfway through baking.
  7. Let pie cool for at least 20 minutes before slicing.

Notes

Use cold butter and water to ensure a flaky crust. Chill dough before rolling to prevent toughness. Adjust stevia to taste to avoid bitterness. Let pie cool before slicing to allow filling to set. Tent with foil if crust browns too fast.
