All-Natural Whole Apple Pie - No Sugar Added - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    6 mcintosh apples, apples cored and cut in half
    1 teaspoon cinnamon
    1 teaspoon cream of tartar (optional)
    1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
    1 tablespoon lemon juice
    1 (14 ounce) package pillsbury pie crusts
    1 1/2 tablespoons almond flour
    1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Preparation
    Place all dry ingredients in a large bowl.
    Put all halved apples in the bowl and mix or toss to cover.
    Add lemon and vanilla to the bowl and toss apples more, to cover.
    ***** You can add 1/4 - 1/2 cup Stevia or Truvia if you want to sweeten even more, though not necessary :).
    Place bottom pie crust in non-fat butter-flavor sprayed pie pan.
    I place cut halves of apples (unpeeled! :) \"face-up\" around the pie crust, then I top those halves with remaining halves of apples and add additional halves and pieces as needed (usually 1 or 2 halves or pieces of halves'.
    Pour remaining mix on top of apples and cover with top crust.
    Be sure to put 2 or 3 cuts into top of pie crust.
    Brush Top Pie Crust with 1 Egg (blended) if desired - makes the pie crust look \"perfectly\" baked!
    Bake for 45 minutes, or until golden browned.
    BEST SERVED AFTER BEING REFRIGERATED (***Awesome*** :).
    I use an Almond Flour, \"SHORTENING-FREE\", Low-fat pie for a better pie crust: it's FAR lower in calories and fat and sugar-index.
