Ingredients

For the pie crust:

  • 1 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1 Tablespoon heavy cream
  • 1 egg beaten
  • 1 1/2 cups almond flour
  • 2 Tablespoons stevia powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

For the pie filling:

  • 1 cup stevia powder
  • 1 packet unflavored gelatin
  • 2 teaspoons corn starch
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 5 egg yolks
  • 1/2 cup lime juice
  • 1 drop lime green food coloring

Instructions

To Make the Crust

  • Soften the cream cheese in the microwave. Add the heavy cream and mix well into the warm cream cheese. Beat one egg in a small bowl with a fork or whisk until evenly mixed and add it to the cheese and heavy cream. Stir this mixture until it is well combined.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, mix together the almond flour, stevia, and salt. Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients and mix until dough forms.
  • Roll the dough between 2 sheets of lightly oiled parchment paper to make a 13-inch circle. Remove the top sheet and invert the crust over a well-greased pie pan. Press the crust into the pan as you peel away the parchment paper. Cut away any excess at the top and flute the top. Use a fork to poke several holes in the bottom of the crust so steam can escape.
    Keto Key Lime Pie Crust Step by Step
  • Bake crust for 15 minutes at 350°F. Remove from oven and allow to cool.

To Make the Pie Filling

  • Add the cornstarch, gelatin, and stevia to a medium mixing bowl. Slowly add the heavy cream, stirring as you pour, to avoid clumping. Next, beat in the egg yolks until they are well combined. Finally, stir in the lime juice.
  • Pour the filling mixture into the cooled pie crust and bake for 25 minutes at 350°F, or until the center has set.
