Instructions:
| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | In a mixing bowl, combine artificial sweetener, cornstarch, and cinnamon, creating a sweet and aromatic blend. |
| 2 | Pour the sweetener mixture over the tart apples, ensuring they are evenly coated, and mix well to infuse the flavors. |
| 3 | Transfer the apple mixture into the unbaked pie crust, spreading it evenly to create a luscious filling. |
| 4 | Cut the low-fat margarine into small pieces and scatter them on top of the apple filling, adding a rich, buttery essence to the pie. |
| 5 | Place the remaining pie crust over the apple filling, covering it entirely, and seal the edges securely for a beautiful finish. |
| 6 | Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and bake the pie for 15 minutes, allowing the crust to crisp up to perfection. |
| 7 | After 15 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for an additional 30-40 minutes, or until the pie is golden brown and the filling is bubbling with irresistible goodness. |
| 8 | Once baked to perfection, remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before slicing into generous servings. |
| 9 | Serve this diabetic-friendly apple pie warm or at room temperature, accompanied by a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired. |
