Create a summertime tradition in your family with this unusual crumb-topped strawberry pie. Ingredients:
1 recipe pastry for a 9 inch single crust pie |
3/4 cup splenda® no calorie sweetener, granulated |
3/4 cup all-purpose flour |
6 tablespoons butter |
1 pinch ground nutmeg |
4 cups fresh strawberries, hulled |
1/2 cup splenda® no calorie sweetener, granulated |
1/2 cup all-purpose flour |
1 tablespoon cornstarch |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place a drip pan on lowest shelf to catch pie juices. 2. To Make Topping: In a medium bowl, mix until fluffy the 3/4 cup SPLENDA® Granulated Sweetener, 3/4 cup flour, butter, and nutmeg. 3. Place cleaned strawberries in a deep bowl. In a separate bowl, mix together the 1/2 cup SPLENDA® Granulated Sweetener, 1/2 cup flour, and cornstarch. Gently coat berries with this mixture; be careful not to crush berries. 4. Pour berries into prepared pie crust mounding them in the middle; mounding is necessary as the berries will sink as they bake. Cover berries with crumb topping and top crumbs with about 15 pea-sized blobs of butter. Wrap edges of pie crust with foil to prevent burning. 5. Bake pie in preheated oven for 20 minutes, then reduce heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and bake for an additional 40 minutes. When there are 10 minutes left of baking, sprinkle a little extra SPLENDA® Granulated Sweetener over crumb topping and then finish baking. |
