Ingredients:

For the Crust For the Filling
2/3 cup shortening 4 – 5 apples
2 cups all-purpose flour 3 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons salt 1/2 cup flour
1 cup water 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
4 packets Sweet ‘n Low 1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon vegan margarine

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Crust:

    • In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and shortening until the mixture resembles small peas.
    • Sprinkle in water, starting with 5 teaspoons, then gradually adding more until the dough is moistened and comes together.
    • Form the dough into a ball and divide it in half.
    • On a lightly floured surface, shape each half into a flattened round.
    • Roll out each round to about 2 inches larger than the size of an upside-down pie plate.
    • Fold each round into quarters and gently place it into the pie tin, then unfold.
    • For a two-crust pie, trim the overhanging edge to about 1/2 inch from the rim.
  2. Prepare the Filling:

    • Preheat your oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C).
    • In a separate bowl, mix together the Sweet ‘n Low, flour, pumpkin pie spice, and salt.
    • Stir in the sliced apples until they are evenly coated.
    • Transfer the apple mixture into the prepared pie plate.
    • Dot the top of the filling with vegan margarine or your choice of vegan butter.
  3. Assemble the Pie:

    • Cover the filled pie with the second rolled-out crust.
    • You can create a lattice crust if you’re feeling adventurous!
    • Seal the edges by pressing them together with a fork, and create decorative edges.
    • To prevent burning, cover the edges of the crust with aluminum foil strips, about 2-3 inches wide.
  4. Bake the Pie:

    • Place the pie in the preheated oven.
    • Bake at 425Β°F (220Β°C) for about 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
    • If the crust begins to brown too quickly, cover it loosely with foil.
    • Remove the foil from the edges for the last 15 minutes of baking to allow the crust to brown.
  5. Serve and Enjoy:

    • Allow the pie to cool for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
    • Serve warm with a scoop of vegan vanilla ice cream or whipped coconut cream.
    • Enjoy this Vegan/Sweet ‘n Low Apple Pie with friends and family, savoring each sweet and tangy bite!

Recipe Notes:

  • Using Sweet ‘n Low in this recipe helps control the juiciness of the filling compared to traditional sugar.
  • For a juicier pie, consider using 6 cups of sliced apples.
  • Each slice of this delicious pie is approximately 74 points if you follow an 8-serving suggestion.
  • If you’re watching your points, you can skip the crust and enjoy the filling on its own.

Now you’re ready to create a delightful Vegan/Sweet ‘n Low Apple Pie and Crust that’s perfect for any occasion, whether it’s a cozy night in or a special gathering with loved ones. Enjoy every flavorful bite! πŸ₯§βœ¨
