Embrace the essence of summer with a fresh, nutritious apple pie that doesn't compromise on flavor.
Opt for organic apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp for their tartness and firm texture.
Use whole wheat flour and coconut oil instead of butter to create a healthier, fiber-rich crust.
Incorporate cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of cloves for a robust flavor without extra calories.
Slice apples thinly and toss them in lemon juice to prevent browning and add a tangy kick.
Add chia seeds or flaxseeds to the filling for an extra dose of fiber and omega-3 fatty acids.
Use cornstarch or arrowroot powder to thicken the filling instead of high-calorie alternatives.
Mix in a handful of raisins or dried cranberries for natural sweetness and a chewy texture.
Bake at 350°F for 45 minutes, ensuring the apples are tender and the crust is golden brown.
