Comments: Sucanat, the dehydrated juice of sugar cane, is the sweetener in this refrigerator pie.
33
Unlike refined white sugar, it retains all the vitamins and minerals present in raw sugar cane.
34
I usually opt for liquid sweeteners (rice syrup, barley malt or possibly maple syrup) in desserts, but a granulated sweetener works best when making a caramel sauce.
35
I suggest making this pie a day in advance.
