NOTES : All gluten-free baked goods - pancakes, biscuits, muffins, 
quick breads, cookies, cakes - are made using gluten-free baking 
powder. It is smart to make up a supply of it to keep on hand. Keep 
handy in the cupboard and use within three months.

                        Pastry for a 9 inch -- 2 crust pie
  6               cups  peeled and thinly sliced pie apples such
                        as Jonathan or Winesap.
  1           teaspoon  fresh lemon juice -- (1 to 2)
  1 1/2      teaspoons  Stevia Extract Powder
  2        tablespoons  whole wheat pastry flour -- (2 to 3)
     1/4      teaspoon  nutmeg
  1           teaspoon  cinnamon
  1               Dash  cloves or allspice
  2        tablespoons  butter
Fit bottom pastry into a pie dish. In a large mixing bowl sprinkle 
lemon juice over apples and stir to mix. Using a cup or small bowl 
stir together stevia, flour, nutmeg, cinnamon, and cloves or 
allspice. Sprinkle spice mixture over apples and carefully stir to 
coat apples. Pile apples into crust. Dot with butter.
With water, moisten the outer rim of the lower crust. Place upper 
crust on pie and crimp edges together. Slit top of pie to allow steam 
to escape. 
Place on a cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees in a preheated oven for 
55 to 60 minutes. Aluminum foil can be placed over the pie during the 
last 15 minutes to prevent over-browning.
Cool on a rack, cover and leave at room temperature overnight or 
refrigerate if you like. This pie is delicious at any temperature.

NOTES : 
This recipe came from the website:
http://www.homestead.com/stevia/recipes.html 
as did the following information. Other recipes are available on that 
site, as well as Stevia products and cookbooks. It also includes many 
links for those interested to browse.
Stevia in the Kitchen by Jeffrey Goettemoeller
There are hundreds of species of the genus Stevia native to North and 
South America. Only one species, rebaudiana, tastes sweet enough to be 
called "sweet leaf" in Brazil and Paraguay where it grows wild. 
Amazingly, Stevia sweetens with almost zero calories, does not 
encourage cavities, is non-glycemic, and may even strengthen the 
pancreas. All this makes it a great natural alternative to artificial 
sweeteners and sugar.
Recipes:  Certain issues  present a challenge when cooking with 
stevia. First, very little is required due to its tremendous 
sweetness. Bulk that would normally be provided by sugar must instead 
be supplied by other dry ingredients. Also, some way must be found to 
distribute the small amount of stevia evenly throughout the other 
ingredients. Sometimes this is done by mixing with liquid ingredients 
first. Another challenge is the slight taste of stevia itself. This is 
not a problem if ingredients are adjusted and selected so that they 
interact harmoniously with the stevia. Green Stevia Powder is more of 
a challenge in this regard than is Stevia Extract Powder
Stevia Extract Powder:   Pure Stevia Extract Powder is your best 
choice for most recipes. Almost all of the recipes in Stevia Sweet 
Recipes list it as an option. This white powder is an extract of the 
sweet glycosides in the stevia plant. Because of their unique 
structure, these glycosides do not contribute calories to the diet. 
The main glycoside is called stevioside. Stevia Extract Powder 
contains 80-95% stevioside. The percentage should be listed on the 
label. We recommend a pure stevia product, with no maltodextrin or 
other fillers. These fillers may not be tolerated by those who must 
avoid easily metabolized carbohydrates, and the "pure" Stevia Extract 
Powder is almost always a better buy in terms of sweetening power for 
your money. 
Stevia Extract powder is 200 to 300 times sweeter than regular white 
sugar. One teaspoon has roughly the same sweetening power as 1 cup 
granulated cane sugar, though the conversion rate varies depending on 
the ingredients it is combined with. 
Green Stevia Powder:  Green Stevia Powder is dried Stevia leaf which 
has been finely ground. Many of our recipes list it as an option. The 
green powder seems to work best with beverages, as well as pineapple, 
kiwi, and some pies. It contains the full range of nutrients found in 
stevia, but does present some additional challenges for use in 
recipes, with it's green color and licorice-like taste. We use it only 
in those recipes where it works well. One nice thing about Green 
Stevia Powder is that you can make it yourself by grinding dried 
leaves in a blender or coffee grinder with metal blades. You can even 
use home-grown stevia this way!
A good rule of thumb is to use 3-4 teaspoons of Green Stevia Powder in 
place of 1 cup of regular cane sugar. Here again, the conversion rate 
varies according to the recipe. 
Liquid Stevia Extract:  Liquid extract is convenient for sweetening 
beverages. Most liquid extracts have an alcohol base, though a water 
extract may be made by boiling or soaking fresh or dried leaves leaves 
and straining with a coffee filter, or by stirring Stevia Extract 
Powder into water.  Water extracts have a limited shelf life and 
should be stored in the refrigerator. A dropper bottle works well as a 
dispenser.
