Some things just need sugar
Rated: 2 stars out of 5

Any good cook knows that sugar produces the carmelization needed for the flavor to this pie and to many other... ingredients. And it is a myth that Diabetics can't eat ANY sugar...sugar comes in many different forms (fructose in fruit for example) and drinking fruit juice or eating fruit is also getting a dose of "sugar"....in fact, Diabetics, when they (like me) have a low MUST have a dose of sweet to pull them out of a hypoglycemic state. As far as this pie, it is close, but no cigar. I would rather indulge in a little wedge of the good stuff and monitor what else I ate for the whole day than eat something that just doesn't taste good.!! we would all be in trouble if we ate the stuff everyday, but good grief, it is a once or twice a year indulgence!! Enjoy!Read more

Great substitute!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this pie for my diabetic uncle for our July 4th celebration and he was so happy! I thought it tasted great,... considering it was sugar free. No doubt it's not as good as the real deal, but you have to make sacrifices for your health and this filled the void for him. I added a little vanilla and flour to thicken it up and also I used 10 oz of pecan chips. It was a solid pie. Will definitely make again.Read more

Missing Something
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

If you've ever eaten a good, Southern pecan pie, this was not it! We have had sugar-free pecan pie before, and this was... nothing like it. The ingredients tended to layer itself, the pecans became musy, it was dry, and it tasted like eating mushy pecan pancakes with a crust. It looks like quiche. We do not recommend.Read more

I couldn't tell it was sugar free! I stumbled across this recipe looking for something that would resemble a traditional pie... for my diabetic mother. She was especially please when i added 1/2 cup of carob chips for a taste of chocolate.Read more

Pecan Pie?
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

This didn't taste much like Pecan Pie. It was more of a mushy eggy mixture with some pecans in it. I'm starting to think you... can't do pecan pie without sugar.Read more

Pecan Pie did not work for me.
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

This recipe did not work for me at all. The ingredients seemed to separate, the pecans were soft and mushy tasting. I threw... it out.Read more
