Ingredients

  • 1 ¼ cups almond flour
  • 2 tablespoons coconut flour
  • ¼ cup butter melted (unsalted)
  • 3 tablespoons erythritol
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C)
  • In a mixing bowl, combine all of the wet ingredients. Mix well with the fork.
  • Add in the remaining dry ingredients. Mix well until the dough forms.
  • Scoop up the dough with your hands and make a dough ball. Leave it in the bowl for a moment.
  • Cover your empty pie plate with foil, ensuring that the foil goes far enough down the side to hold well. Using a sharp knife or scissors, gently cut a circle with a 1” smaller diameter than your pie plate, as shown in the image below. Discard the cut foil. Gently remove the remaining foil from the pie plate and set aside.
  • Place the dough ball into the pie plate. Using your hands, evenly distribute the dough over the entire pie dish. After it looks even, you can use the bottom of a flat glass or measuring cup to flatten the dough.
  • Use the fork to poke some holes in the bottom of the crust.
  • Place the foil heat shield over the pie plate, securing the sides.

Cooking Steps

  • Place the pie plate in the oven on the middle rack. Bake for 15 minutes, then remove the aluminum heat shield. Bake for another 5-7 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
  • Remove the crust from the oven and set on a cooling rack.
  • Once cooled down, your low carb crust is ready to be used in whatever pie you make!
