Diabetic Pecan Pie Recipe

The South Rides Again!

Can a diabetic pecan pie recipe live up to this Southern favorite? We think we nailed this traditional favorite pie. What do you think?

Admittedly, no other pie was as difficult to try and make diabetic friendly as this one. If you have never made a pecan pie, you may not know that the traditional pie is more similar to a piece of candy than a pie! Who knew Karo Syrup was like sugar on steroids!

We think we have done a great job being faithful to the traditional pie. However, a traditional serving is still almost 300 calories, so don't eat this every day. Also, we also strongly suggest cutting the pie into 10 servings.
