Ingredients

Keto Pie Crust

  • 1 ½ cups almond flour
  • 5 tablespoon coconut flour
  • 2 teaspoon xanthan gum
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 egg lightly beaten
  • 3 teaspoon water as needed
  • Egg wash: 1 egg + 1 teaspoon water optional

Filling

  • 1 small package cherry tomatoes halved
  • ¼ cup basil thinly chopped
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 cup cream
  • 3 eggs
  • Salt and pepper to taste

  • Optional high flavor: pinch of oregano or crushed red pepper

Instructions

Make the Keto Crust

  • In a food processor, pulse almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, and salt.
  • Add egg and apple cider vinegar. Pulse until it looks like coarse crumbs and begins to clump.
  • Add water 1 teaspoon at a time only if needed.
  • Wrap dough in plastic wrap, press into a disk, and chill at least 1 hour.

Roll + Pre-Bake

  • Roll dough between parchment paper. If it gets sticky or cracks, freeze 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Place in pie dish. Freeze 10 to 15 minutes to help it hold shape.
  • Brush with egg wash (optional).
  • Bake at 390°F (200°C) for 8 to 10 minutes until lightly golden.

Mix the Filling

  • Lower oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Optional but recommended: lightly salt tomatoes and let drain 10 minutes, then pat dry.
  • In a bowl, mix tomatoes, basil, olive oil, garlic powder, cream, eggs, salt, and pepper.
  • Stir in parmesan.

Bake

  • Pour filling into pre-baked crust.
  • Bake 25 to 30 minutes until set and golden on top.
  • Cool 10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with basil.
