Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need for this keto-friendly pie:

For the crust:

1 1/2 cups almond flour
1/4 cup powdered erythritol
1/3 cup melted butter
1 egg yolk
1/2 tsp vanilla powder
Pinch of salt

For the filling:

3 cups chopped rhubarb (about 4 stalks)
3 eggs
1 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup powdered erythritol
1 tsp vanilla powder
1/4 tsp nutmeg

Instructions

Make the crust

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Mix almond flour, erythritol, and salt in a bowl.
Add melted butter, egg yolk, and vanilla. Stir until dough forms.
Press dough into a 9-inch pie dish, building up the sides.
Bake for 10 minutes, then set aside to cool slightly.

Prepare the filling

Spread chopped rhubarb evenly over the pre-baked crust.
Whisk together eggs, cream, erythritol, vanilla, and nutmeg until smooth.
Pour custard mixture over the rhubarb.
Bake for 35-40 minutes until custard is set but still slightly jiggly in center.
Cool completely before slicing – about 2 hours.

Tips and Tricks

For extra flavor, macerate the rhubarb with 1 tbsp erythritol for 30 minutes before baking.
If crust browns too quickly, cover edges with foil during baking.
Serve with whipped cream sweetened with erythritol for an extra treat.
This pairs beautifully with our adorable pastel cakesicles for a dessert spread.
