There are few things more comforting than curling up with a bowl of warm apple pie. With all the butter and sugar you find in traditional recipes, a golden, pastry-wrapped apple pie is often fairly high in calories. We’ve worked some Pinch of Nom magic to bring you those cosy, comforting flavours in a much more slimming-friendly pudding – and that’s how this Crustless Apple Pie was created!
Our silky set custard-style dessert is made using surprisingly simple ingredients – most of which we bet you already have in the kitchen! It takes just 10 minutes to mix everything together, and then you’ll only have to wait half an hour for it to bake in the oven.
When it’s ready, your delicious, apple-infused pud will be lightly golden and perfectly set. At just 158 calories per serving, you can’t go wrong with a drizzle of slimming-friendly Custard or some low-calorie ice cream on the side.

Can semi-skimmed milk be used instead of skimmed
HollyWednesday 17th April 2024
Hey Diane, yes you can swap for semi skimmed and alter the calories accordingly, hope that helps!
Lynda BradshawWednesday 6th December 2023
Mine hasn’t set in the middle where did I go wrong?
SharonMonday 11th December 2023
Hi Lynda, it sounds like you need to cook your Crustless Apple Pie for a little longer. Using a shallower dish may also help.
StephThursday 16th February 2023
Does it have to be cooking apples or can i use any apples? Is there a reason it asks for cooking apples?
HollyFriday 17th February 2023
Hey Steph, cooking apples are best for pies and crumbles as they are tart and have a firmer flesh that doesn’t break down as much when cooked. Eating apples are a lot sweeter so if you use those instead you may find you need to add less sugar or sweetener to the pie. Hope that helps!
KarenSunday 27th November 2022
I don’t have Greek yoghurt but can I use natural yoghurt instead. Thanks
HollyMonday 28th November 2022
Hey Karen, yes natural yoghurt will be fine to use, hope that helps!
AnnTuesday 15th November 2022
What is the approximate weight of the 6 apples please?
Ann
SharonTuesday 15th November 2022
Hi Ann, the weight of the 6 apples is approximately 900g in total. Hope you enjoy our Crustless Apple Pie!
LynneWednesday 9th November 2022
Hi, i have noticed that some puddings and certain cakes can also be cooked in a slow cooker. Do you think its possible with this, and do you have a slow cooker conversion guide for temp/hours? Thanks.
SharonFriday 11th November 2022
Hi Lynne, we haven’t tried cooking our Crustless Apple Pie in a slow cooker so can’t guarantee good results. If you’d like to try it we’d suggest the following:
Use an ovenproof dish that will fit comfortably inside your slow cooker and stand it on a trivet/crumpled foil/ upturned ramekin dishes to raise it off the bottom of the slow cooker pot.
Pour warm water into the slow cooker pot to come halfway up the side of the oven proof dish. Cooking slowly in a water bath will reduce the chances of the filling curdling.
Cover the dish tightly with foil.
We’d suggest cooking gently on the low setting.
You could pop the cooked pie under a moderate grill for a couple of minutes until lightly golden.
We have a handy article here with a conversion guide for slow cooking which you may find useful: How to Convert Recipes to a Slow Cooker
Do hope this helps!
HelenaWednesday 9th November 2022
Can the Crustless Apple Pie be cooked in the Airfryer and if it can at what temperature and for how long?
Thanks
HollyWednesday 9th November 2022
Hey Helena, we haven’t tested this recipe in the air-fryer so can’t guarantee the results. We have an air-fryer conversion guide HERE which you may find helpful!
Zarine OomrigarFriday 11th November 2022
Hi, I just made this in my airfryer. Cooked it for 24 mins. It was excellent!
SharonMonday 14th November 2022
Hi Zarine, we’re glad to hear our Crustless Apple Pie worked so well in your air fryer! Thanks for helping out and sharing this with us.
Nina BarkerTuesday 8th November 2022
Hi thanks for the recipe. It looks fabulous. Does the granulated sweetener mean granulated sugar? I don’t like artificial sweeteners. I can’t wait for your next cookbook!
HollyWednesday 9th November 2022
Hey Nina, we use granulated sweetener that is like for like in texture and weight as sugar so it can be easily swapped if you would prefer to use sugar, hope that helps!
NinaMonday 21st November 2022
Thanks for replying, very much appreciated. Just to clarify… therefore, I use exactly the same weight of caster sugar or light brown sugar as granulated sweetener? I am assuming that weight for weight with sugar will work in all your other recipes? Just want to make sure before I start substituting the sugar and baking. Big thanks
HollyMonday 21st November 2022
Hey Nina, we always use granulated sweetener that has the same texture and weight as sugar so not the powdery kind. So swapping for sugar in any of our recipes will work the same you will just need to alter the calories accordingly. We have an article HERE which you may find helpful!
Simone KellyTuesday 8th November 2022
Hi do you think this would work with pears?
HollyWednesday 9th November 2022
Hey Simone, we haven’t tested this recipe using pears but it should work great! Hope that helps!
