APPLESAUCE SPICE PIE

 

1 (9-inch) unbaked sugar-free whole-wheat pie shell (or your favorite low-carb pie shell)

1 jar (16-oz) unsweetened applesauce
1/4 cup + 2 tbsp packed Splenda Brown Sugar Blend
4 large eggs
1/4 cup lemon juice from concentrate
2 tbsp butter, melted
1 tbsp white whole-wheat flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

In large mixer bowl, combine all ingredients except the pie shell and mix well. Pour into the pastry shell and bake at 425 degrees 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees and bake another 30 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted near the edge comes out clean.

Cool to warm before cutting to serve. Best when served warm with whipped cream or a small scoop of sugar-free vanilla ice cream.

Note: Any leftovers should be refrigerated.
