Opt for a whole wheat pie crust instead of traditional white flour crust. Whole wheat adds fiber, which aids digestion and helps you feel full longer, supporting weight loss efforts.

Use natural sweeteners like honey or maple syrup instead of refined sugars in the apple filling. You can also reduce the amount of sweetener used by enhancing the natural sweetness.

Choose sweet-tart apple varieties such as Honeycrisp, Gala, or Granny Smith for the filling. These apples provide flavor and texture without needing excessive added sugars.

Instead of a traditional pie crust or crumble, top your apple pie with an oatmeal crumble made from rolled oats, a touch of coconut oil or butter, and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
