Method
 

Prepare the Crust
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, erythritol, and salt.
  3. Add the melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract, and stir until well combined.
  4. Press the dough evenly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie pan.
  5. Bake for 8-10 minutes until the crust is lightly golden. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
Prepare the Filling
  1. In a separate bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, eggs, heavy cream, erythritol, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  2. Add the spices: cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and salt. Mix again until well incorporated.
  3. Pour the pumpkin mixture into the cooled crust.
Bake the Pie
  1. Bake the pie at 350°F (175°C) for 40-50 minutes, or until the center is set and only slightly jiggles when you gently shake the pie pan.
  2. If the crust edges start to brown too quickly, cover them with aluminum foil or a pie shield.
  3. Once baked, remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature for at least 1 hour before slicing.

Notes

When making keto pumpkin pie, it's crucial to let the pie cool completely before serving. This helps the filling set properly, ensuring that each slice holds its shape. Also, for the best flavor, let the pie rest overnight in the fridge. The spices will deepen, and the texture will be even more delicious the next day!
