Pie Dough:

1.5 c Carbquik
1/2 stick Blue Bonnet Light (or ICBINB)--NOTE: it MUST be cold!
About 5 tbsp water
1 egg, beaten

Filling

2 apples (granny smith or golden delicious work well), sliced very thin
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tbsp Splenda
1 tbsp SF caramel syrup (Davinci/Torani)

Directions:

1. Mix CQ and "butter" together until butter is broken up. Add water a tablespoon at a time until a dough forms. Test it by pinching it. If it holds together it is good to go. If it cracks, you need more water. Refrigerate dough for about an hour or two.

2. Spray a skillet with nonstick cooking spray. Add apples, cinnamon, splenda and syrup and cook apples until soft and splenda/syrup mixture is caramelized.

3. Flour your countertop (I used soy flour...just another way to be protein forward). Cut dough into desired amount of equal sized pieces. Refrigerate half the dough while you are working with half the dough. 

4. Roll each piece of dough out with a rolling pin. Lay on a sprayed cookie sheet and fill half with apple mixture. Fold over into a pocket, pressing down around the edges. If you want, you can mark the edges with a fork for visual appeal.

5. Once all are done, brush the top of each with the beaten egg and cut a slit in the top to allow steam to escape.

6. Bake in a preheated 350 oven for 10 minutes.
