Rosemary, Try cooking the apples into sauce, then adding the equal to taste. That way it does not have to cook. I would love some of your low or no sugar recipes. I am a borderline diabetic, who is trying not to go over that edge that requires medication. I figure the lower I keep my sugar intake the less chance I will need it. It is good to see your name again too. Anne in FL zone 9b, sunset 26
