For the Crust:
- 1 ½ cups almond flour
- ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3 tablespoons melted butter
- 2 tablespoons erythritol or your preferred sugar substitute
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Filling:
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup powdered erythritol
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup chopped pecans
For the Topping:
- ½ cup pecan halves
- Whipped cream (optional, for garnish)
- Prepare the Crust: In a medium bowl, combine the almond flour, cocoa powder, melted butter, erythritol, and vanilla extract, mixing until a crumbly dough forms.
- Form the Crust: Evenly press the crumbly mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch pie pan, creating a firm crust layer; set aside to let it firm up slightly.
- Make the Filling: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth, then gradually add powdered erythritol and vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated and creamy.
- Whip the Cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form, ensuring it holds its shape well for folding.
- Combine Filling Ingredients: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully blended, creating a light and fluffy filling.
- Add Pecans: Fold in the chopped pecans evenly into the filling mixture for added texture and flavor.
- Assemble the Pie: Pour the filling mixture over the prepared crust and spread evenly using a spatula for a smooth top.
- Chill: Cover the pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow it to set firmly.
- Garnish and Serve: Before serving, adorn the pie with pecan halves and optionally whipped cream for an attractive and delicious finish. Slice and enjoy your keto-friendly dessert.
Notes
- Ensure the cream cheese is softened for smooth mixing.
- Use powdered erythritol for a smoother filling texture.
- Chilling time is important for the pie to set properly.
- For extra flavor, lightly toast the pecans before adding.
- Whipped cream topping is optional but adds a lovely aesthetic and richness.
