Instructions
Keto Pie Crust Instructions
Add all dry ingredients into food processor and pulse to blend.
Add the rest of the ingredients except butter and pulse until crumbs begin to form.
Add butter and pulse until large crumbs begin to form and dough just starts to come together. Do not overwork the dough.
Form dough into a ball and place in the freezer for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat convection oven to 325 degrees or 350 degrees for conventional.
Roll out dough between parchment paper, lumps of butter will still be visible. Keto pie crust is more fragile than traditional crust, so be sure to work quickly.
Place dough into a 9 inch pie plate. Flute edges if desired or use fork to make indentions of the edge of the crust.
Poke holes in the crust.
Bake crust for 15 minutes or until edges are golden brown.
Allow crust to cool for about 15 minutes.
Strawberry Pie Filling Instructions
Slice strawberries lengthwise.
Boil 3/4 cup water in a saucepan large enough to hold 4 cups of strawberries. There will be 1 1/2 cups of strawberries left out of this mixture for topping the pie.
Remove 1/4 cup of hot water from the pan and whisk in 2 teaspoons of xanthan gum until dissolved.
Add strawberries, xanthan gum mixture and swerve back to the saucepan.
Stir mixture constantly over medium heat until combined and add the remaining 1/2 cup of water.
Continue stirring until liquid is reduced and mixture is thickened, about 7-10 minutes.
Remove from heat and allow mixture to cool.
Assembling the Strawberry Pie
Once the crust and strawberry mixture have come to room temperature, add the filling to the crust and smooth.
Arrange the remaining fresh strawberries on the top of the pie to create a design.
Chill pie in the refrigerator for about an hour or until filling is set.
Serve with whipped cream if desired.
