examples: Sprinkle Sweet or Sugar Twin:

not concentrated artificial sweeteners such as those found in single-serving packets. Spray a 9-inch glass pie pan with cooking spray. Combine biscuit mix with the 3 tablespoons diet margarine in blender or food processor, using the steel blade. Process until blended to fine crumbs (mixture will not form a batter; it will have the consistency of heavy flour). Sprinkle half the flour mixture on the bottom of the pie pan. Spoon half the apples on top of the flour mixture. Sprinkle on 4 tablespoons of the sugar substitute. Spoon on the remaining apples, including any juice in the can. Sprinkle on the grated peel, if desired. Add the cinnamon and the remaining 1 teaspoon diet margarine to the remaining flour mixture and process into crumbs. Sprinkle the crumbs evenly over the apples. Place on the bottom rack of a preheated 400 oven and bake 20 minutes, just until crumbs are lightly browned (don't overbake or sugar
substitute will lose its sweetness). Remove from oven and allow to cool completely. Stir remaining 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar substitute with confectioners' sugar, if desired, until blended; sprinkle over the top of the crumbs. Or omit confectioners' sugar and simply sprinkle the top of the cooled pie with sugar-free sweetener. {120 calories per serving; 10 additional with confectioners' sugar} WITH FRUCTOSE: If you prefer, granulated fructose (alwo known as fruit sugar), may be used instead of sugar-free sweetener. Substitute 1 teaspoon lemon juice for the lemon peel. {150 calories per serving} WITH OTHER CANNED FRUITS: Three cups canned unsweetened sliced peaches, diced pears, pineapple tidbits, fruit cocktail, or other juice-packed fruits may be substitute for the apples. If other fruits are used, drain them and reserve 1/2 cup of the juice to pour over the fruit before adding the final topping of crumbs. SOURCE: Slim Gourmet Sweets & Treats (pg. 39) -----
