The crust in a pie is more apt to raise blood sugar levels than the sugar in the pie.
Sugar will also raise blood sugar levels.
If you make the pie mix (any pie) and use brown sugar instead of white sugar and put it in a pan or casserole dish to bake as if it were a pie but without the crust, a person who has hypoglycemia or is diabetic can eat it without worrying about blood sugar and get really good tasting fiber.
