Here's a recipe for a keto-friendly, sugar-free pecan pie:
Ingredients
For the Crust:
- 1 ½ cups almond flour
- ¼ cup coconut flour
- 2 tablespoons powdered erythritol or another keto sweetener
- ½ teaspoon xanthan gum
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 large egg
For the Filling:
- 1 cup pecans (halves or chopped)
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- ¾ cup sugar-free maple syrup (use a keto-friendly brand)
- ½ cup brown sugar substitute (e.g., Sukrin Gold or Swerve Brown)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 3 large eggs
1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Prepare the Crust:
- In a medium bowl, mix together the almond flour, coconut flour, powdered erythritol, xanthan gum, and salt.
- Add the melted butter and the egg, and stir until the dough forms.
- Press the dough evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish.
- Bake the crust for about 10-12 minutes, or until it begins to turn golden. Remove from the oven and set aside.
3. Prepare the Filling:
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.
- Stir in the sugar-free maple syrup and brown sugar substitute. Cook until the mixture is well combined and smooth.
- Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt.
- Allow the mixture to cool slightly, then whisk in the eggs one at a time until fully incorporated.
4. Assemble the Pie:
- Arrange the pecans evenly over the pre-baked crust.
- Pour the filling mixture over the pecans, ensuring they are evenly coated.
5. Bake the Pie:
- Bake the pie for 40-50 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is golden.
- If the crust edges begin to brown too quickly, you can cover them with foil to prevent burning.
6. Cool and Serve:
- Allow the pie to cool completely before slicing. This helps the filling to set properly.
- Serve as is, or with a dollop of sugar-free whipped cream.
- Make sure to let the pie cool completely before cutting; this will give the filling time to set and make slicing easier.
- Store any leftovers in the fridge, and reheat slices gently if desired.
Enjoy your delicious, keto-friendly pecan pie!
