Apple Butter Pie

Move over, pumpkin pie. There’s a new kid in town.

Apple Butter Pie. This recipe is a game changer, friends.

The texture of pumpkin pie with the taste of apple! Apple Butter Pie has a 5 minute filling bursting with traditional fall flavor.

Ingredients

1/2cup apple butter
2 large eggs
1/2 cup white sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 cups whole milk
Pastry for 1 9" pie crust

Instructions

  • Beat eggs in a medium size bowl. Add the sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon and apple butter. Mix well.
  • Add milk and whisk together.
  • Press the pastry into a 9" pie plate that has been sprayed with cooking spray.
  • Pour the filling into the unbaked pie crust. Use a spoon to mix the filling once it is in the crust to be sure all of the ingredients are equally distributed.
  • Bake at 375 for 60-65 minutes, or until the center is set. It will still seem slightly "jiggly" in the very center, but a knife put in the center should come out nearly clean.
  • Cool in the pie plate on a wire rack. Do not slice into the pie right away, as it will continue to set as it sits.
  • Store the pie in the refrigerator once it is cooled.

Notes

*It's best to use a high fat milk for this recipe. You can even use evaporated milk or half and half.

*I would start checking to see if the pie is done after 55 minutes of baking. 

*If the edge of the crust is getting too brown, cover it with foil.

2 refrigerated pie crusts for 9 inch pies or your favorite homemade pie dough

FILLING:

6 tablespoons butter melted, divided
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup chopped pecans
8 cups peeled and thinly sliced apples
1 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

GLAZE:

1/2 cup powdered sugar
2 to 3 teaspoons milk or water

Instructions

  1.    Line a 9-in. deep-dish pie plate with aluminum foil, leaving the extra foil hanging beyond the edge         of the pan. Coat the foil with cooking spray. Combine 4 tablespoons melted butter, brown sugar and pecans; spoon into prepared pie plate.

  1. In a large bowl, combine the apples, sugar, flour, cinnamon, and remaining butter. Mix together gently.
     
  2. Place one pie crust over nut mixture, pressing firmly against mixture and sides of plate. Cut off excess pie dough, but leave about 1 inch of dough beyond plate edge. Fill the pie dough with apple mixture.
     
  3. Place the remaining pie dough over the filling. Cut off the excess dough to 1/4 an inch beyond pan edge. Fold the bottom crust over top crust; seal and flute edges. Cut four 1-in. slits in top crust.
     
  4. Bake at 375° for 50-55 minutes or until apples are tender and crust is golden brown. If necessary, cover the edges of the pie with aluminum foil for the last 15-20 minutes to prevent them from getting too brown.

Ultimate Low Carb Cheese Crust Pizza

Ingredients

1 1/2 C shredded mozzarella cheese
2 T grated parmesan cheese
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1/2 tsp. dried basil
Dash of salt (1/8 tsp.)
2 eggs

Desired toppings (more shredded mozzarella, tomato sauce, vegetables, meats, etc.)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and place a nonstick liner on a cookie sheet or pizza pan (or grease very well).
     
  2. In a medium bowl, combine together mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, basil, salt and eggs. Stir very well with a sturdy spoon for at least a full minute until everything is mixed well and the eggs are broken down and evenly distributed.
     
  3. Use a sheet of plastic wrap to press the dough down evenly into your pan (I used a freehand style right in the center of a large cookie sheet). Place into the oven on the center rack and allow to bake for about 20 minutes or until the edges are deep golden brown and the center is a light golden brown. The center should be firm and should not jiggle at all but shouldn’t be too brown.
     
  4. Turn the oven temperature up to 400 degrees. Allow the crust to cool slightly before attempting to move it (about 10 minutes). Remove the crust and place it onto a metal rack and set it back on the pan (this is optional, as you can set it right back on the pan– but I feel this makes the crust crispier).

     
  5. Top the pizza crust as you desire and place back into the oven for approximately 10 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and melted. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Enjoy!

Notes

Entire crust has just 8g net carbs. Crust should feed 2-4 people depending on their appetites.

Warm Flourless Chocolate Cake with Caramel Sauce

Ingredients:

1 cup butter, cubed
8 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
1 1/4 cups white sugar
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
6 eggs
1 1/2 cups white sugar
1/4 cup water
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter the bottom of a 10" springform pan and line with parchment paper.

  2. Melt the butter in a large saucepan over low heat. Stir in chocolate and continue to stir until almost melted. Remove from heat and stir until melted and smooth. In a large bowl, stir together 1 1/4 cups sugar and the cocoa powder. Whisk in the eggs until well blended, then whisk in the chocolate and butter. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.

  3. Bake for about 45 minutes in the preheated oven. The cake is ready when the edges have nicely puffed and the surface is firm except for a small spot in the center that will jiggle when the pan is gently shaken. Cool cake in the pan over a wire rack. Run a knife around the sides of the pan to loosen the cake, then remove the sides of the pan and invert onto a serving plate. Remove the parchment paper.

  4. In a heavy saucepan, stir together 1 1/2 cups of sugar, water and lemon juice. Bring to a boil over medium heat and cook without stirring until the syrup is a deep amber color. For an accurate color check, dip a metal spoon into the syrup and lift it out of the pan to check the color. Once the syrup is amber, remove from the heat. Gradually stir in the cream. The mixture will bubble vigorously. If lumps form, stir gently over low heat to dissolve them. Stir in 2 tablespoons of butter.

  5. Cut the cake into wedges while warm and serve with caramel sauce spooned over it. You can also chill the cake and sauce, then warm again before serving.
