Ingredients
  

For the Crust:
  • 2 cups almond flour (200g)
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 4 tablespoons powdered sweetener
  • ½ cup butter (80g), melted
For the Filling:
  • 1 cup cream cheese (300g), room temperature
  • ¾ cup heavy cream / double cream (180g)
  • 1 cup sugar-free condensed milk (250g)
  • ½ cup fresh lime juice (120ml, from 3-4 regular limes)
  • 1 sachet gelatin (12g, or 2 teaspoons)
  • ½ cup heavy cream (80g)
  • 1 tablespoon powdered sweetener
  • Lime slices for garnish
  • Grated zest of 1 lime

Equipment

  • 9-inch pie dish
  • Mixing bowls
  • Electric mixer
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Whisk
  • Rubber spatula

Method
 

Instructions:
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, salt, cinnamon, and powdered sweetener. Next, pour in the melted butter and mix until a dough forms. Press this mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Bake the crust in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-12 minutes, or until lightly golden. Allow it to cool completely.
  2. In another mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the sugar-free condensed milk, heavy cream, and fresh lime juice while continuing to mix. Sprinkle the gelatin over 2 tablespoons of water and let it sit for a few minutes until it becomes gelatinous. Then, warm it slightly to dissolve and add it to the filling mixture, blending until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whip the remaining heavy cream and the tablespoon of powdered sweetener until soft peaks form. Gently fold this whipped cream into the lime filling mixture, being careful not to deflate the cream.
  4. Pour the filling into the cooled crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until set.
  5. Once set, slice your Keto Key Lime Pie and garnish with lime slices and grated lime zest before serving. Enjoy this creamy, tangy treat guilt-free!
