Calories in Pies, Calories in Pie Filling, Calories in Pie Crust
Pie calories very greatly depending upon the ingredients used in the recipe, in addition to the serving size.
Fruit pies tend to be a better choice because of the healthier fruit benefits, and are much lower in calories than nut-based pies OR cheese pies.
Oddly enough, commercially prepared pies tend to contain fewer calories than pies prepared at home. They also tend to hold less pie per serving than homemade pies, so calorie counts can appear a bit skewed.
The following holiday pie calories is based on information from the USDA. Our first Pie Calorie Table pits commercially prepared pie calories against homemade recipe pie calories.
Our second Pie Calorie Table contains a mix of pies that are both commercially prepared, and prepared at home, in addition to calories contained in favorite pie fillings.
Our last Pie Calorie Table contains calories in pie crust. One of our favorite weight loss tips is to roll the crust as thin as possible. After all, the crust is basically flour and fat. Opting for less crust and more filling can not only increase the health benefits of most pies, it can assist in reducing the calorie content.
