good bakery?

Question

i moved to U.S around 8 months ago and I have a problem with finding good pie's. Usually those are too sweet and that sweetnes is killing the taste. I was just wondering if there are any not oversweetened pie's or if there are any good recepies to bake an apple or blueberry pie???

Answer 1

Apple Pie

2 prepared 8 inch pastry shells
6 tart apples - peeled, cored and sliced
1/2 cup white sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons butter

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Place sliced apples in a large bowl. In a small bowl combine sugar, cinnamon, and flour. Stir well and pour mixture over apples. Cut half of butter or margarine into small pieces and add to apples. Toss apples until thoroughly coated.

Pour apples into pastry-lined pie pan. Dot apples with the rest of butter or margarine. Place second pastry on top. Seal edges and cut steam vents in top crust.

Bake in preheated oven for 45 to 55 minutes, until crust is golden brown.


Creamy Blueberry Pie

3 cups fresh blueberries
1 (9 inch) deep dish pie crust
1 cup white sugar
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup butter

Combine 1 cup sugar, 1/3 cup flour, and salt. Add eggs and sour cream, stirring until blended.

Place blueberries in pastry shell, and spoon sour cream mixture over berries.

In another bowl, combine 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup flour. Cut in butter or margarine with pastry blender until mixture resembles course meal. Sprinkle this mixture over sour cream mixture and berries in the pie shell.

Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 50 to 55 minutes, or until lightly browned. If desired, garnish with additional blueberries and mint leaves.

Answer 2

Check your local grocery to see if they carry the sugar free variety of pie you like. Albertson's (now Sav-Mart) used to carry sugar free apple and cherry, as well as Raley's/Bel Aire. Also, check online for Splenda recipes for sugar free. If you are in to making your own fruit pies, you can control how much sugar you add so that they are more tart than sweet. Make sure you use Granny Smith apples for apple pie and tart bing cherries for cherry pie.
