INSTRUCTIONS

1. Measure out and prepare all the ingredients.

2. In a food processor, add the almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, and salt.

3. Pulse the food processor until everything is combined well.

4. Add in the cold unsalted butter and cold cream cheese.

5. Pulse again until combined well. The mixture should start to get crumbly.

6. Crack the egg into the food processor and mix to combine well and so that the dough is just starting to come together. Don’t over process the dough.

7. Distribute the pie crust into two even parts. Place the dough into cling wrap and smooth the dough. Form one of the dough pieces into a round shape and one into a rectangular shape. Place in the refrigerator for at least one hour. Meanwhile, make the apple pie filling.

8. In a large pan over low to medium heat, add the unsalted butter. Brown the butter by stirring it every few minutes for about 4 – 6 minutes. Add in the sliced zucchinis and cinnamon, erythritol, lemon juice, nutmeg, ginger, allspice, and salt.

9. Cover and let simmer for about 15 minutes. Remove lid and taste test. Adjust erythritol and lemon juice accordingly. Cover and cook for 10 more minutes. Remove the lid, and cook for another 15 minutes. Then, remove from heat and let cool completely.

10. Using parchment paper, measure your pie dish so you can measure out the pie dough correctly. Then, grease your pie dish with butter.

11. Between two sheets of parchment paper, add your round refrigerated pie dough. Roll out the pie dough to the size that will fit your pan.

12. Form the pie crust to the pan. After the zucchini filling has cooled, spoon the mixture into the pie dish.

13. Roll out the other refrigerated pie dough and slice into pieces to form a lattice top. Weave the lattice top and press into the under crust to make sure it holds together.

14. Make an egg wash by combining the egg and water together. With a pastry brush, brush this mixture onto the top of the lattice topping. Bake in the oven for 25 minutes.

15. Allow the keto apple pie to cool completely to allow it to set. Once completely cooled and set, slice, and enjoy!

This makes a total of 10 servings of Keto Apple Pie. Each serving comes out to be 262 calories, 22.7g fat, 6g net carbs, and 7.1g protein.
