Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Almond flour
- 0.25 cups Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar substitute (like erythritol)
- 4 large Egg yolks
- 0.75 cups Lemon juice, freshly squeezed
- 1 tablespoon Zest of lemon
- 0.5 cups Powdered sugar substitute
- 0.5 cups Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Gelatin powder
- 2 tablespoons Cold water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium bowl, mix the almond flour, melted butter, and granulated sugar substitute until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press the mixture into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust. Use the back of a spoon to smooth it out evenly.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove and let it cool.
In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin powder over the cold water and let it bloom for 5 minutes.
In a medium saucepan over low heat, whisk together the egg yolks, lemon juice, lemon zest, and powdered sugar substitute.
Cook the mixture gently, stirring constantly, until it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon. This should take 5-7 minutes. Do not let it boil.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the bloomed gelatin until fully dissolved.
Let the lemon mixture cool slightly, then fold in the heavy cream until smooth and creamy.
Pour the filling into the cooled crust and spread it evenly.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours or until fully set.
Once set, garnish with additional lemon zest or whipped cream if desired. Slice and serve chilled.
