I make something similar by taking fiber One, running it through the food processor until it's finely ground, and then mixing it with warm (microwaved) unsweetened applesauce and cinnamon and a little splenda. I use maybe 1/3 fiber One "powder" and 2/3 applesauce. I've also been known to top it with a little fat free cool whip. Satisfies that apple pastry craving.

I posted it as "Easy As Pie" on SparkRecipes.com, but here it is:

EASY AS PIE (Makes 1 "apple pie")

Ingredients:
1 sheet Low Fat Honey graham crackers

Directions:
1. Divide the graham cracker sheet into 4 pieces.
2. Place 3 of the pieces on a microwave-safe dish.
3. Top with unsweetened applesauce.
4. Crumble the remaining fourth piece of graham cracker over the applesauce.
5. Sprinkle with cinnamon.
6. Microwave for 10-15 seconds.
7. Enjoy!
