Keto Friendly Pumpkin Pie

Ingredients:
For the Keto Pie Crust:
- 1 1/2 cups almond flour
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1/4 cup granulated erythritol or another keto-friendly sweetener
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
- 1 large egg
For the Pumpkin Pie Filling:
- 1 (15-ounce) can pumpkin puree (unsweetened)
- 3/4 cup heavy cream
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup granulated erythritol or another keto-friendly sweetener
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (or a mix of cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and cloves)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
Instructions:
For the Keto Pie Crust:
-
In a food processor, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, granulated erythritol, and salt.
-
Add the cold, cubed butter to the mixture in the food processor. Pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
-
Add the egg and continue to pulse until the dough comes together. If the dough is too dry, you can add a teaspoon or two of cold water.
-
Remove the dough from the food processor and shape it into a ball. Wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
For the Pumpkin Pie Filling:
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
-
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, heavy cream, eggs, granulated erythritol, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
Assembling and Baking:
-
Roll out the chilled keto pie crust dough between two sheets of parchment paper to fit a 9-inch pie dish.
-
Place the rolled-out crust into the pie dish and trim any excess dough.
-
Pour the pumpkin pie filling into the crust.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-55 minutes, or until the pie is set and the edges are slightly browned. The center may still be slightly jiggly but will firm up as it cools.
-
Allow the keto-friendly pumpkin pie to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours to fully set.
-
Slice and serve your delicious keto pumpkin pie.
