Vegetable Spray
Whites of 2 large eggs, or egg substitute equivalent to 1 egg
3/4 cup sugar
2 Tablespoons light brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup diced peeled apples
1/4 cup chopped walnuts, dry-roasted
Preheat the oven to 350°. Lightly spray an 8-inch pie pan with vegetable oil spray. In a large mixing bowl, beat the egg whites, sugars, baking powder, vanilla, cinnamon, lemon zest and nutmeg with an electric mixer until smooth and fluffy. Stir in the flour just to blend. Beat until smooth and well blended. Stir in the apples. Spoon into the pie pan. Sprinkle the nuts over the apple mixture. Bake for 30 minutes, or until golden brown.
Note from book: The pie will puff up as it cooks, then collapse as it cools. Moist and rich, this pie is also easy and tasty--it's a real winner. Serve it warm or chilled.
