So for Valentine's Day I thought about a dessert but I also know some of my friends and readers are counting calories so I chose a sugar substitute option for baking pecan pie. I know how much this pie is a favorite for a lot of people and if there's a way for us sugar lovers to enjoy our desserts, I want to find a way to do it! And this recipe is very easy as well to make. Hubby and I just celebrated our 8th year anniversary and I wasn't sure what to do for him for V'Day and I didn't want to do the card and candies so I think this dessert will make a much more personable gift - nothing wrong with card and candles, but I'm in this mood lately of wanting to break with traditions. And I know how big a sweet tooth he has so he always enjoys whatever I serve him which is great for me because he's so easy to please.
Ingredients:
3 eggs
28 pkg. Equal or other sugar substitute for baking
1 c. diet syrup
1/4 c. melted butter
1 c. pecan halves
1 (8 inch) pie crust
Preparation:
Beat eggs and sugar together. Add syrup and melted butter, stir, add pecans. Put into unbaked pie crust with edges covered with foil for about 25 minutes. Remove foil from the edges and bake for another 25 minutes or until you can insert a knife and have it come out clean. Serve!
