Eating healthy doesn’t have to be boring and tasteless. Now I wouldn’t recommend eating sweet treats on a regular basis but it’s comforting to know you can still satisfy your sweet tooth without using ingredients that’ll cause distress in your body.
The smell of this pie will bring delight while baking and as always I only share recipes that all your family and friends will enjoy!
