Can I substitue low-fat flour tortillas for pie crust?

Miz D asked:


Do you have a recipe or best method to use low-fat flour tortillas instead of regular pie crust? I’d like to make a sugar-free, low-fat applie pie or apple cobbler.

Yes, you can use tortillas. Just soften them over heat before putting them in the pan.

You could try sugar-free graham crackers, held together with sugar-free jam that has been heated in a microwave.

They make some super-size tortillas that might work ???
but to buy a pkg @ $3 – 4 .00????
look for the new Pillsbury Rolled pie shells they are delicious..
PS:: !!!
There is more sugar in the apples .
There is NO sugar in pie dough..
Flour,, shortening,, salt,, water….
EDIT later
I just realized this is a fat issue …silly me ?
HA HA you worry at the shortening …?
read the Crisco label..
