Baked Apple Pie Egg Rolls ~ Recipe

This is a spin on apple pie that I haven't seen before. Ok, maybe a spin on the pocket pies you get from some fast food places or in the grocery. Those are just sugar pies that have very little flavor!

Since we are into healthy foods this year, I studied this recipe realized that it could be modified just a little bit to be healthier and still very tasty. It worked!

Egg roll wrappers are not going to be full of calories. My research found that there is 170 calories in 3 egg roll wrappers. Regular pie crust has 113 calories in a 1/8 piece of a 9 inch pie crust. 

You can use other milk products besides heavy whipping cream to cut calories there, like low fat yogurt with a touch of vanilla, or whip non-fat milk in a Cream Whipper .  Use a substitute of your choice for the sugar. This is to dip your eggroll pie into, so it won't be a lot that you are using anyway. 

I love the apple choices used in the recipe, too. Both the Granny Smith and the Gala have great flavor. Give this a try and enjoy a healthy apple pie!
