Can you make a tasty pie without any added sugar or sweetener

No.

>>8206642
Is there some reason you can't add a sweetener?

>>8206642
It depends on what kind of fruit you're talking about. It is entirely feasible to make a sugar-free apple pie, I've done it, it's good. But don't fucking make a wheat crust, that's just wrong.

You can make a crostata with just the fruit being the sweet part.

>>8206642
Yes.

You make up the difference with lard fat and salt. And the result is orgasmic.
Don't neglect herb elements because with no sugar it can help to add a little bite.

>>8206642
eat it with fruit preserve/jam/jelly whatever the fuck they call it where you are from

btw, i like the whole wheat crust you have there

I used to think pies weren't great, and then I tried a pie made with lard and it made me understand

>>8206642
Why would you do something like pie half-way by skimping on sweetness? You don't eat pie regularly. It can be indulgent. A little extra sugar in one meal won't kill you.

More sugar doesn't necessarily make something taste better.

yeah, it's bread and fruit, you don't need to add sugar to appreciate it

Apparently adding lard makes the pie crust amaxing

I prefer 65/35 lard to butter. You get the layers and flakiness of the lard and the flavor of the butter and without the mouth feel of 100% lard which can sometimes be a bit much.

sure you can

You really can't. You need some kind of sweetener, even if it isn't sugar. There are very few fruits with enough sugar and low enough acid to be palatable alone.

The only thing I've found you could use is a certain kind of purple yam, it's not ube it's called a Molokai sweet potato and it's almost too sweet. So this isn't a fruit pie trvhnically, but it's a pie and requires no extra sweetener.

Not that it makes a difference. Just because the sugar is in the fruit doesn't mean it's better for you.

Not OP but I have worn enamel from teeth grinding so life is misery. I can only eat certain fruits too.

OP, whenever I cut sugar in a recipe, I add more cinnamon and vanilla extract. Be a bit more generous on the fat.

>>8209820
Lmao

You realise that preserve/jam/jelly/whatever the fuck are made with large amounts of sugar, right?
