Blueberry-Apple Pockets
 Ingredients:
1 apple (medium sized)
1/3 cup fresh blueberries
1/2 cup Splenda
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 heaping tablespoon corn starch
1 recipe of pie dough or 1 sleeve of Pillsbury uncooked pie dough
Makes 4 pockets
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees
1. Peel and thinly slice the apple. In a medium sized bowl combine the sliced apple, blueberriese, Splenda, cinnamon, and corn starch. Mix together until the pieces of fruit are coated with the corn starch and Splenda. Set aside.
2. On a floured area roll out the dough to a square shape - it will seem thin. Cut into 4 equal sizes.
3. Place 1/4 of the fruit mixture on the lower half of the pie dough square.
4. Fold over the top and use a fork to crimp the 3 sides sealing them. Repeat process for remainder of fruit and dough squares.
5. Place completed pockets on an ungreased cookie sheet. Do not make any vent cuts. Brush top with a little butter (Parkay non-fat spray is a good alternative to butter and has no calories).
6. Bake in a pre-heated 425 degree oven for about 20 minutes or until golden brown.
7. Remove to a platter and dust with Splenda powdered sugar.
8. Serve with a little sugar free ice cream on the side for an extra yummy dessert.
