Diabetic Sugar-Free Apple Pie
Double crust for 9-inch pie
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1⁄4 teaspoon salt
1 can (6 ounces) frozen apple juice, thawed
5 to 6 Jonathan apples, peeled and sliced
2 tablespoons butter
Heat oven to 450°F. Place bottom crust in pie plate; set aside.
In medium saucepan, heat flour, cinnamon and salt. Gradually stir in apple juice and bring to a boil. Add apples and stir thoroughly to coat with thickened juice. Pour into pie shell and dot with butter. Add top crust and seal.
Bake for 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350, and continue baking for an additional 30 to 35 minutes, or until apples are tender and crust is golden brown.

Made the apple juice pie, everyone at our home group loved it, added a little more cinnamon and some nutmeg..may not truly be "sugar-free" but much better than the traditional white sugar version!

The sugars listed on a can of frozen 100% juice are natural suagrs from the food, they're also in the raw apples you pick right off the trees too. The other possibility is to use sugar free juice, but I'm pretty sure that's not 100% juice at that point. Either way, I'm confident the recipe wasn't a grand conspiracy to sneak sugar into the diets of diabetics, which is kind of the vibe I picked up from your comment. Peace, joy, laughter and success in all you do.
WOW how can apple juice that has 26 gr of sugar be SUGAR FREE? Very deceptive article.
