Ingredients
Pie Crust:
- 1 cup almond flour
- ⅓ cup coconut flour
- 1 tsp xanthan gum
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
- 1 oz cream cheese
- 1 egg
- 1 ½ tsp rice vinegar
Pecan Pie Filling:
- 12 oz ChocZero Caramel, Maple or Vanilla Syrup
- ½ cup heavy whipping cream
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter, cubed
- ½ tsp salt
- 6 egg yolks, lightly beaten
- ½ cup chopped pecans
Directions
- Add the almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, salt, butter and cream cheese to a food processor. Pulse until coarse crumbles form. Add in the egg and vinegar and pulse until a dough ball forms. If you don’t own a food processor you can cut the butter and cream cheese in using a pastry blender or a fork.
- Wrap dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- To make the pie filling, add ChocZero Sugar Free Syrup and heavy cream to a small sauce pan. Heat over medium heat until foaming and bubbly. Remove from heat. Let cool for a couple minutes. Stir in butter and salt until butter is melted. Stir in beaten egg yolks.
- Preheat the oven to 325°F.
- Roll out pie crust in between two sheets of parchment paper. Roll to ⅛ to ¼ inch thickness and place crust in a pie pan. Fold in the edges.
- Scatter chopped pecans in the bottom of the pie crust. Pour in pie filling. Bake at 325°F for 45-60 minutes or until the filling is set and lightly jiggly. Refrigerate for 1 hour to cool and set the filling.
