Sugar Free Pie Recipes

All my searches for sugar free pie recipes turn up nothing but recipes that use artificial sweeteners. Grrrr.
I am looking for a recipe that uses either fruit juice concentrate and/or honey.
Apple pie in particular! Anybody got any ideas?

What about stevia? Got any? I have recipes for Banana Coconut Cream pie, Lemon Custard pie, mocha cream pie, pumpkin pie, savory apple pie, and vanilla carob custard pie. None of them use flour.

No, I don't have any, but thanks for the offer of the recipes! None of us can really get used to the bitter flavor of stevia.

This is one our family uses - we make our own crust :)
Hope it helps out!


No Sugar Apple Pie SUBMITTED BY: Carolyn Contains no artificial sweeteners!"



INGREDIENTS
2 (9 inch) pie shell
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 (12 fluid ounce) can unsweetened apple juice concentrate, thawed
6 cups sliced green apples



DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
In a small bowl whisk together cornstarch, cinnamon, and 1/3 cup of the apple juice concentrate. Set aside.
In a large saucepan simmer apples with remaining apple juice concentrate until apples are tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in cornstarch mixture and continue to simmer until thickened. Remove from heat.
Spoon apple mixture into pastry-lined pie plate. Cover with top crust. Seal and flute edges. Cut steam vents in top.
Bake in preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until crust is golden brown.
