Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a bowl, combine almond flour, granulated erythritol, and a pinch of salt.
Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan or microwave.
Add the melted butter to the almond flour mixture and mix until the dough comes together.
Add 1 beaten egg to the dough and mix until well combined.
Press the dough evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom.
Bake the crust for 10 minutes, then remove from oven and let it cool.
To prepare the filling, blend the shelled pistachios in a food processor until finely ground.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mascarpone cheese, cream cheese, 0.5 teaspoon stevia powder, vanilla extract, ground pistachios, lemon zest, and egg yolk.
Mix until smooth and creamy.
Pour the pistachio filling into the cooled crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake the filled tart for 15 minutes or until the center is set.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool at room temperature for 1 hour, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
Optionally, garnish with chopped pistachios or lemon zest before serving.
