Sugar Free Apple Pie
Looking for a sugar free dessert that doesn't use synthetic sugar substitutes? Try stevia. It is an herb that is about 250 times sweeter than sugar that has been used around the world for decades. The natural sweetness of the apples, plus a small amount of stevia will make you think you are eating the real thing!
