French Vanilla

Pies are such popular desserts and even we diabetics enjoy a good slice of pie now and then. As the holidays approach, many cooks are starting to think ahead to their menus. If you are concerned about dessert for a family member or friend who is diabetic, make one of these pies. They are so good they will be enjoyed by all. Both are lovely fruit pies. Choose from French Vanilla Peach or Very Easy Apple.
VERY EASY APPLE PIE
pastry for a double crust pie
7 cups peeled and sliced apples
3/4 cup Splenda granular
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 1/2 tbsp butter
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Line a 9-inch pie pan with pastry crust. In a large bowl, combine the apples, Splenda, and cinnamon and stir until apples are coated. Pile into the pie plate. Dot with the butter. Cover with another sheet of pastry and fold edges over to seal. Flute with a fork or use fingers to press a design on the edges. Cut small slits in the top pastry to allow steam to escape. Bake at 425 degrees for 50 minutes or until the crust is brown and the apples are tender. To check apples, pierce with a fork through one of the steam vents.
This pie is great with a scoop of sugar-free vanilla ice cream!
FRENCH VANILLA-PEACH PIE
1 9-inch baked pie shell
1 15-oz can no-sugar-added peach halves
1 tbsp Splenda granular
1 1 3/4-oz pkg sugar-free Instant French Vanilla Pudding Mix
milk
1 carton frozen sugar-free whipped topping, thawed
Drain peach halves, reserving juice in a liquid measuring cup. Chill the juice by placing in freezer for a few minutes. Place peach halves, cut side down on a cutting board. Cut into chopped-sized pieces by cutting one way and then the other. Cover bottom of prepared pastry crust with the peach pieces. Sprinkle the Splenda granular over the peaches. Empty pudding mix into a small mixing bowl. Add enough milk to the peach juice to make a total of 1 3/4 cups. Add peach juice/milk mixture to the pudding mix and beat well for a couple of minutes with a wire whisk. Pudding should be fairly thick. Spread pudding over the peaches. Chill for at least 1 hour before serving. To serve, top with whipped topping
Enjoy!
