| I'm type 1 so it's a little different for me. What I do know is that I need between 1.5 and 3 units of insulin for an apple depending upon its size, which means that it has between 15 and 30g of carbs. The latter are the huge, sweet Pink Lady apples. Love the things, but going without a shot for one of those is a trip into double figures for me. So I can see how one of those would be a problem for a T2 who cannot cover with insulin.
Try weighing the ones you eat and looking up the carb content per 100g on calorie king etc. to see how many G of carbs your variety has. As others have said, adding fats or proteins to go with may slow down the absorbtion. All of the carbs will get in, but if you can get them to absorb over a longer period it may be kinder on you blood glucose.
