Johnny Appleseed Pie - Holiday Dessert Recipes for Dieters

Our Johnny Appleseed Pie was created with apple lovers in mind. Another plus is that it's very skinny on the waist. Oh, and not to forget - ultra easy to make.

You will need the following ingredients for this diet-wise recipe:

5-6 apples - peeled and cored

1 pie crust tucked inside of a tart pan OR quiche pan

Splenda to suit personal taste

1 small lemon OR lemon juice

Ground Cinnamon

Margarine OR Butter

Slice peeled apples very thin so that they create a fan; spray on a bit of lemon juice to prevent browning while you are working to arrange the apples. Arrange apples on top of the pie dough to create one large fan with a small fan of apples anchored in the center.

Next, dust with just a bit of ground cinnamon; then dust with Splenda. Place a few pats of butter or margarine on top of the pie and then bake at 350-degrees until bubbly and crust is done - about 25 minutes.
