Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Almond flour
- 0.25 cups Coconut flour
- 0.5 cups Powdered erythritol
- 0.75 cups Butter, unsalted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 large Granny Smith apples
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon Xanthan gum
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, powdered erythritol, and salt.
Cut in the butter with a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Add the vanilla extract and gently incorporate until a dough forms.
Press the dough evenly into the bottom of a 9-inch pie pan.
Prick the base with a fork to prevent bubbling, then blind bake for 10 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
Peel, core, and thinly slice the Granny Smith apples.
In a medium bowl, toss apple slices with lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and xanthan gum until well coated.
Arrange the apple mixture evenly over the pre-baked crust.
Bake in the oven for about 30 minutes, until apples are soft and crust is golden.
Allow to cool before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
