Traditional apple pie contains refined sugar and butter or lard. Not to mention the filling and crust generally contain gluten filled flour, which can be troublesome for those who need to avoid gluten. These ingredients contribute to high sugar, fat, and calorie content which isn't exactly healthy. It's possible to adjust a few ingredients to make your apple pie recipe healthy, or healthier at least! By using plant based whole food ingredients you can reduce the calories, as well as lower the saturated fat. The sugar content is slightly less, but it comes from natural sources which helps to create a healthier apple pie.
