Tips:

  • Use a variety of fruits. This will give your pie a more complex flavor and texture. Some good choices include apples, peaches, blueberries, and strawberries.
  • Don't overcook the fruit. You want the fruit to be tender but still hold its shape. Cook it over medium heat until it is just softened.
  • Use a thickener. This will help to thicken the pie filling and prevent it from being too runny. Some good thickeners include cornstarch, flour, and tapioca.
  • Don't overfill the pie crust. Leave about 1/2 inch of space around the edges so that the crust can rise and cook properly.
  • Bake the pie at a high temperature. This will help to create a golden brown crust. The ideal temperature is 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the pie cool before serving. This will allow the filling to set and the crust to firm up.

Conclusion:

Aunt Shirley's Dietetic Pie is a delicious and healthy dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its flaky crust and sweet fruit filling, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a dessert that is both delicious and nutritious, give Aunt Shirley's Dietetic Pie a try.
