How To Make Low Carb Pie Crust
Do you know what I love about this recipe?
No rolling out the dough.
Let me tell you why.
I actually really suck at rolling out pie dough. But I mean, REALLY suck. I don't have the patience, I don't have a light enough hand or pie crust just hates me, I'm not sure which it is.
So when I made this Low Carb Pie Crust recipe, I wanted one you could simply pat out. I'm a really good patter. What I lack in rolling abilities, I make up in patability!
This super easy pie crust is one where you just mix up a bunch of ingredients in a bowl, and then you start patting.
- In a small bowl, mix together almond flour and powdered Swerve.
- Pour in the melted coconut butter and mix well until you have a crumbly mixture.
- Tip the mixture into a 9-inch shallow pie pan. Use your fingers to pat the pie crust evenly into the bottom and then work your way up the sides.
- Once the mixture is evenly spread through the pan, use the tines of a fork to prick the bottom of the crust.
- Bake at 400F for 8-10 minutes. If you find the top starting to brown faster than the rest, either cover the edges with foil, or reduce the temperature to 375F.
- Allow the crust to cool for 30 minutes and then fill with the filling of your choice.
What Can I Use Instead Of Butter For Pie Crust?
When I created this recipe, I wanted to make a pie crust that was a Keto Pie Crust, a Gluten Free Pie Crust, and a Vegan Pie Crust.
In order to make it all three of those things, I couldn't use butter in this recipe. So, I did what I always do when I need to find a replacement for dairy in one of my recipes -- I used coconut oil!
What Ingredients Will I Need To Make Keto Pie Crust?
You only need THREE ingredients to make this Low Carb Pie Crust.
No, I'm not kidding.

Is the Carb count for the entire crust or for a portion?
URVASHI PITRE
For a portion. Servings are specified in the recipe card
Jamie
Can you use this pie crust for pies that need baking?
aviva
Couldn't get it to crisp up. otherwise delicious and easy to work with
Gabrielle
The dough stays soft to touch but is almost burnt, how did you manage to get a crust instead of an almond patty? I tried cooking it longer, even covered it with foil at some point, but none of these are working, the crust is almost burnt.

I’m wondering if your oven runs hot? Maybe turn it down a bit?
Gabrielle
I baked it at 375F, it was still too hot I think.
Debbie Wolf
If you were to use your Low Carb Pumpkin Pudding in this crust, how would you do it? Make the crust and bake first? Fill the crust with the pudding mixture and cook in the Instant Pot.
Christy
Can this keto crust be used in your air fryer hand pies recipe? Thanks.
