Jeffs Wild Tame Diabetic Berry Pie Recipes

SPLENDA-BERRY PIE

Steps:

• Allow all your frozen berries to dethaw in a sieve placed over a bowl. As they thaw, juice should drain into the bowl- save it! You need it for the a later step. (Thawing not included in prep time).
• Preheat you oven to 375 degrees.
• Pie crusts always have 2 in a package. Unroll one and place it flat in the freezer, unroll the other and set it in your 9 inch pie plate.
• In a tiny bowl beat together the egg yolk and water with a fork. This is called egg wash, and will make your crusts pretty and will work as "pie crust glue." Brush the egg wash around the rim of the pie crust in the pie plate.
• In another small bowl, add your cornstarch, then slowly pour one cup of the drained berry juice to the cornstarch while whisking briskly. It should not be lumpy by the time you're done.
• In a medium saucepan, add Splenda, then slowly add cornstarch, whisking the whole time. Stir constantly until mixture comes to a boil. Boil one minute.
• Stir in butter and fruit from sieve.Cool slightly and pour mixture into your pie shell.
• Take your remaining pie crust out of the freezer. (It should now be firm enough to work with- but work quickly!) Cut into 1 1/2 inch wide strips. Arrange strips in a lattice design over the filling. Trim strips even with lower pie crust, fold edges over and crimp to seal.
• Brush all visible pie crust with your egg wash that you made earlier.
• Bake for 40-45 minutes or until browned. You may want to cover the edges of your pie with foil so they don't burn.
• Allow to cool on a wire rack.

• In a large bowl, mix white sugar, brown sugar, and flour.
• Add softened butter, cream, eggs and vanilla. Mix until well blended. Pour into 2 unbaked pie shells.
• Bake at 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) for 10 minutes, then reduce temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and continue baking for 45 to 50 minutes.

ANJOU BAKERY'S (MARION)BERRY PIE

Steps:

• Crust: Combine dry ingredients in a stand mixer. Add butter and beat with paddle attachment on low speed, scraping bowl as needed, until pieces are raisin-size. Note: it was easier for me to use a food processor for this step.
• With mixer still on low speed, drizzle in 1 tablespoons ice water; beat until pastry comes together, 1 1/2 to 3 minutes. Form 1 1/4 cups into a disk and the rest into a smaller disk.
• Preheat oven to 375° with rack on bottom rung.
• On a lightly floured board, roll larger disk into a 12-in. circle. Loosen with a long metal spatula, gently roll around a rolling pin, then unroll into a 9-in. pie pan (if dough cracks, press back together).
• Fold edge under, so it's flush with pan rim, then crimp.
• Roll remaining dough into an 11-in. circle. With a cookie cutter, cut out enough shapes such as squares to cover most of pie. Set cutouts on a baking sheet; chill crust and cutout in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
• Pie Filling: Stir together cornstarch and granulated sugar in a large bowl. Add berries with juices and toss to coat.
• Arrange evenly in pie shell. Lightly brush pastry cutouts with water and sprinkle with coarse sugar. Arrange cutouts over filling.
• Bake pie until filling bubbles and pastry is golden in center, 55 to 60 minutes (up to 1 1/2 hours if berries were frozen); if edge starts to get dark, cover with foil, and if pie starts to bubble over, put a rimmed pan underneath it.
• Let cool on a rack to room temperature, at least 3 hours.

PEACH BERRY PIE

Steps:

• In large bowl combine sugar, flour, cornstarch, salt and nutmeg.
• Add fruit and vanilla, toss to mix.
• Let stand for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Line pie plate with bottom pastry, add filling.
• Dot with butter, Roll out remaining pastry, make lattice crust, seal and flute edges.
• Bake at 375 for 50-55 minutes or until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly.
• Cool on wire rack.

FRUIT SWEETENED BERRY PIE

Steps:

• In large saucepan, combine the berries (I have used fresh black berries and the mixed berries from Costco), the thinly sliced apples (I have used granny smith), the flour, orange zest, orange extract and cinnamon. Stir over medium heat until thickened. Make sure to keep stirring so the berries don't scorch. Line a pie pan with crust. When berries are thickened pour into lined pie dish and top with butter, if desired. Top with second pie crust and crimp edges. Cut slits in the top of the pie and bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes or until crust is golden. Enjoy!
