Keto Gluten-free Pie Crust
How to Make It
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 325F/165C. Melt the butter in a small saucepan. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the sunflower seed flour, allulose, sweetener, and salt and whisk to combine. Ensure there are no lumps. Add in the melted butter and mix using a spatula until coarse crumbs start to form.
Step 2
Transfer the mixture to a pie dish and use the spatula to evenly spread the mixture around the bottom of the dish. Use your fingers to press down firmly and ensure that the mixture is spread evenly. Finish pressing by using flat-bottomed glass to even out the surface of the crust. Then, use a fork to poke holes throughout the crust to prevent bubbling.
Step 3
Transfer the pie dish to the oven and bake for 20 minutes until the edges are golden brown. Par-bake the crust without any fillings for about 12 minutes if baking a filled pie. Allow it to cool in the pie dish before slicing.
Step 4
This pie crust can be served sweet paired with lemon curd, Italian meringue, or strawberries and cream. For a savory pie, this pie crust makes the best base for a quiche, chicken pot pie, or meat pie. Add the filling and serve warm or cold.
