When embarking on a sugar-reduced adventure, it’s essential to include desserts in your plans. The phrase ‘treat yo’self’ takes on a new meaning when we’re looking for sweet treats that won’t compromise our dietary goals. Pies with fruit fillings are a great starting point, as many fruits contain natural sugars. However, we’re focusing on added sugar-free pies here. For those who crave a sweet indulgence every now and then, this list of 25 sugar-free pies is designed to satisfy your cravings.
To begin, let’s start with some sugar-free pie crust recipes that can be used repeatedly. As you become more comfortable baking with alternative sweeteners and flours, the possibilities will expand, and you’ll find it’s easy to whip up a variety of sugar-free pies. If no-bake options are more your style, there are a few on this list to explore. Alternatively, if personal-size pies are your preference, I’ve included some gluten-free and keto hand pie recipes worth trying.
Looking back, sugar-free Jello pies were once the primary option for those seeking a sweet treat without added sugar.

Sugar-Free Peach Cobbler
Peach-based sugar-free pies derive their sweetness solely from the natural sugars present in the fruit itself, with peaches being the star ingredient in this particular recipe.
