Apple Pie (Sweet 'n Low) Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
2 lb mcintosh apples, peeled, and thinly, sliced (7 cups)
2 tbsp lemon juice
2 tbsp sugar
1 tbsp butter buds sprinkles
4 package sweet'n low (or 1-1/4 ts bulk)
1 tbsp all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/8 tsp ground allspice
4 sheets phyllo dough, thawed
1 nonfat frozen vanilla yogurt option, al
Recipe Preparation
Preheat the oven to 375 F. Spray a 9-inch pie pan with nonstick
cooking spray.
In a large bowl, toss the apples with the lemon juice. In a small
bowl, combine the sugar, Butter Buds, Sweet'N Low, flour, cinnamon
and allspice. Add to the apples and toss to coat. Lightly spray one
sheet of phyllo dough with nonstick cooking spray. Fold in half and
spray again. Place in the pie pan with one edge hanging over the pan.
Repeat the process with the remaining 3 sheets of dough, overlapping
in the pan to cover the bottom completely. Spoon the apple mixture
into the pan. Fold the edges of the dough over to cover the apples.
Spray with nonstick cooking spray. Bake 35 minutes, or until the
dough is crisp and the apples are tender when pierced with a sharp
knife. Cool slightly before serving.
Serve with nonfat frozen vanilla yogurt, if desired.
Variation: Seven cups of sliced fresh peaches or pears, or fresh
blueberries, may be substituted for the apples. (Makes 1 9-inch pie,
8 servings)

Food Tips of the Week
Losing weightDrink more water. At times during a hectic day, you guess you are peckish but in truth you might only want a restorative glass of water or cranberry juice. The sensations of needing food and needing a drink are close, but one can result in a fat tummy and the alternative is ok.
Some lower carb diet pointers:
* Replace sugar with splenda. Many recipes that need sugar can be changed to make use of splenda instead. It has a different density so you will need to do a bit of trial and error and it might not work for every recipe, but it does bake up nice once you get the measurements right.
* Make low carb bread crumbs for deep fried or oven baked foods. Although you can probably buy low carbohydrate breadcrumbs, you can make them yourself by using low carbohydrate bread. All you have to do is toast the reduced carb bread in the oven on a sheet of baking paper. Once it is quite hard and crispy, whizz it in the food processor using a coarse blade. Store in an airtight container.
