Celebrate with healthier take on classic apple pie

As all-American desserts go, it’s hard to beat apple pie, especially for the Fourth of July.

But celebrating a big holiday shouldn’t have to involve making a big healthy eating sacrifice. So in honor of our nation’s independence, we decided to create an apple dessert that lets us have our pie and our healthy habits, too.

With pie, the real dietary downfall is the crust, which typically is laden with butter or shortening. So we decided to remake the classic into a much lighter handheld flaky pastry.
