For the Cookies:
- Preheat your oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare the Carrot Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, heavy whipping cream, shredded carrot (if using), large egg, brown sweetener, unsweetened coconut flakes, almond flour, coconut flour, chopped walnuts, a sprinkle of cinnamon, and a pinch of sea salt.
- Mix and Let It Thicken: Stir the mixture until well combined. Let it sit for a minute to thicken slightly.
- Shape the Pies: Spoon the mixture onto the parchment paper-lined cookie sheet using a greased, round scoop. Use the back of a spoon to flatten and shape them. These won’t spread much during baking, so create your desired pie shapes at this step.
- Bake: Place the cookie sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the pies are just set.
- Cool: Allow the pies to cool on the cookie sheet.
For the Cream Filling:
- In a separate mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, cream cheese, powdered erythritol, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Assembling the Creme Pies:
- Once the cookies have cooled, spread a generous amount of the cream filling on the bottom side of one cookie and then top it with another cookie to create a sandwich.
- Repeat this process for all the cookies.
This recipe yields about 6 individual creme pies, creating a total of 3 servings. Enjoy your Keto and Low-Carb Carrot Creme Pies with the creamy filling for a delicious low-carb treat!
