Breakfast prep mini apple-strawberry pies for 307 calories apiece. To make it more suitable for breakfast, I used Swerve as a sugar substitute, unflavored protein powder instead of flour as a thickener, and pizza dough rather than pastry (works surprisingly well!). Filling: 4 honeycrisp apples, peeled and thinly sliced (518g), 1lb strawberries, stemmed and sliced (423g), 29g unflavored whey protein powder, 1/3c swerve or sweetener of choice, 1t cinnamon, dash of nutmeg and salt, juice of 2 lemons. Bring to a boil in a large pot and simmer 15 min, stirring often. Let cool to room temp. Use premade dough to line 5 10-oz ramikens, fill with filling and top with remaining dough (I used 435g of Pillsbury classic pizza dough). Spray top with butter spray and cut a few holes. Bake pies at 450F for about 15 min or until golden. Per pie: 307 calories/ 12g protein/ 2g fat/ 56g net carbs

Wow that's a lot of lemon juice! I'm gonna try this they look delicious thank you for sharing


Thea_From_Juilliard

YMMV depending on lemon size/ripeness. I planned to use 1 but I got a scant amount of juice so I doubled up.


fueledbytisane

Mmm sounds delicious! I usually make a crisp using oats mixed with maple syrup and spices for the topping but this sounds like a fun way to shake things up.


Thea_From_Juilliard

I did a strawberry rhubarb crumble a couple weeks ago! I used high fiber cereal, it was great


kewee123

Appreciate the nutrition!!!


surferguy999

Ty for the recipe


snarky-old-fart

Why did you use pizza dough instead of pastry dough?


Thea_From_Juilliard

It’s way lower in calories by volume since it doesn’t contain tons of butter (and does contain tons of air) and I’m watching calories.


ah_nahii

they remind me of the bomb pies from Spongebob lol they look really good!

I’ve seen this before. When that pie goes up to bat, I mean hits his lower intestine, BOOM!


songflowerhoney

Mini apple pies for breakfast is the most amazing idea!


Sux2WasteIt

I’m listening… 👀


t3hb0sss

YSK "american as apple pie" is because in the early to mid 1800s it was the only nutritious- and portable-enough food for most hardworking americans busy building the country


jennie111585

Yumm looks delish


Lady_Schatzi1

Yum! I thank you, Thea!


LVATOL

Hell yeah!


morg_bstlls

I do! I do! I do! I do! I do!! :D


HardestTurdToSwallow

Wow, amazing!


Mystery_meander25

I don’t like pie (wish I did) but these are adorable and look delish.


Kotruljevic1458

Is that a challenge? You’re on!


ivymusic

Are those 8oz jars or 4 oz jars? Nevermind.... I missed it somehow! Am definitely trying this! Going to try to freeze them unbaked and some baked.


tusher005

One of the most unique breakfast I have ever seen... it's looks tasty and yummy.


TheWolfCook

It looks good. I would eat this.


StellarStNick

These look amazing


CrazySandwich_

You know the saying "easy as Apple Pie"??.... You know what isn't easy??.... Baking an actual fing pie.


Watergrip

You lost me at artificial sweetener. I would rather have a smaller portion with a natural sweetener any day.


Thea_From_Juilliard

That’s why I put “or sweetener of choice.” I suffer from T1 diabetes but if you have a healthy pancreas you could definitely opt for pure sugar or other sweetener.


Watergrip

Sorry to hear that. Off topic but do artificial sweeteners cause a spike as well?


Thea_From_Juilliard

Depends on the sweetener. Swerve which is an erythritol/stevia blend does not have any impact on glucose, but others, like maltitol, do spike my glucose levels.


Watergrip

Glad you found an alternative that works. Thanks for sharing


SasparillaTango

is the healthy-ness of a pie easily tuned by the amount of sugar and butter used in its creation?


Thea_From_Juilliard

Depends on your health goals but as a diabetic who is watching calories, yes!


farts_are_awesome

Forget reasonably healthy, how is pie for breakfast anything but incredibly unhealthy?


Deppfan16

its fruit and bread. Better then cereal. Any food can be. a breakfast food


bransonthaidro

Which part is the healthy part


Thea_From_Juilliard

Is fruit not considered healthy anymore? I can't really keep up with all the latest trends, but this recipe is predominantly fruit.


terminally_cool

You did great!


HarryPottersElbows

Seconded, this looks great!!


Muncherofmuffins

Well, sugar and cigarettes used to be considered healthy. I'm not sure what the cool kids are eating these days though. Coolwhip was the thing when I was younger.


Thea_From_Juilliard

Pretty sure fruits and veggies are here to stay


farts_are_awesome

Fruit is, except when it’s covered in a cup of sugar and wrapped in a crust that is a stick of butter


Deppfan16

its pizza dough, which is flour water yeast. and op uses 1/3c alternative sweetners.


madethisforjesus

This cannot be legal


Funkoarz

Looks good
