This (healthier) Struesel Pie is so delicious and was definitely a hit in my household. If you are trying to slowly wean off sugar and not sure what dessert to make to satisfy and please that glorious sweet tooth of yours, this is the recipe for you. It is. Easy and delicious and only takes a few ingredients. What really gives this pie its flavor is the spices in it and the peaches themselves. For those who do not know Peaches, like most other fruits, contain a good amount of sugar within themselves making it unnecessary (most of the times😉) to add suagr, especially that no good refined suagr! This recipe makes 2 pies, feel free to 1/2 the recipe or double it to make it suitable for you!
