You can eat this apple pie even on a diet. All because of 1 healthy add -on

You don’t have to completely give up cakes while on a diet. You can prepare healthier alternatives of traditional baking and without flour and without white sugar. This is what the oat apple pie is. It will come out so good that it will disappear from the plate in the blink of an eye. We present a simple recipe for this.

A traditional apple pie is made on fragile or semi -circular dough, which is made of white flour. It is this ingredient that does not provide nutritional value, but empty calories. It is worth replacing it with healthier substitutes. In question?

Baked wheat flour can be replaced with whole grain flour, e.g. spelled or gluten -free flour, i.e. almond or buckwheat. We will successfully make a shortcake with them. We will also prepare a crunchy bottom with oatmeal. We also recommend using them for crumble.

Oat apple pie will also be healthier when we replace white sugar with xylitol or erythritol. Remember, however, that these substitutes are less sweet, so it’s worth increasing their amount in the cakes a bit.

As already mentioned, the oat apple pie consists of the bottom of oatmeal, but also of apple filling enriched with spicy spices. We also make crumble in a healthier version.
