Keto Blueberry Pie Recipes

EASY KETO BLUEBERRY PIE (DOUBLE CRUST)

Steps:

• In a medium-sized bowl combine the coconut flour and the almond flour and salt. Note if making the nut-free option use sunflower seed flour in place of the almond flour and set aside.
• Melt the unsalted butter and set aside
• To the dry ingredients add the melted butter and combine quickly.
• Next add the two whole eggs and combine.
• Melt the mozzarella cheese in the microwave for a total of 90 seconds stirring halfway through. Once it comes out of the microwave mix well until fully incorporated. You can also melt the mozzarella cheese in double boiler.
• Add the melted mozzarella cheese to the mixture and knead the dough with your hands until all the cheese is blended well into the pie dough. I recommend you do so between two sheets of parchment paper so that the dough doesn't stick to your hands. Alternatively, you can use a stand-up mixer with the dough hook
• Once the dough forms divide the dough in half to make the top and bottom of the pie crust.
• Place the pastry dough in the refrigerator to rest the dough and allow the dough to chill. This will make it easier to work with and will produce the flakiest crust.
• Roll out the chilled dough between two sheets of parchment paper for both the top and bottom of the crust and place back into the refrigerator for another 15 minutes to cool again and make it easier to roll the dough.
• Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees
• Transfer one of the rolled crust into a 9-inch pie pan. Being careful to smooth any cracks.
• After you have transferred the bottom crust to the pie pan. You can proceed to add the filling.
• Spread the cream cheese layer to the bottom of the crust being gentle as to not tear the bottom crust. It is key that the cream cheese not be cold otherwise it will not spread.
• Next add the blueberry filling
• Once you add the filling to the pie and the top crust
• Add 5 or 6 slits to the top of the pie to let the steam vent.
• Bake the pie for 25-20 minutes or until the topping is lightly brown.
• Allow the pie to fully cool before slicing.
• Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

• Roll out the dough between 2 sheets of parchment paper and place in fridge for 20 - 30 minutes to chill. Then cut into strips on a diagonal using a pizza cutter or sharp knife about 1 cm in thickness.
• To make the lattice, lay the bottom strips on top of the berries then starting at one side add a strip perpendicular and just lift the bottom ones up and under. Trim at the edges, then brush with a little egg white and sprinkle with low carb sweetener.
• Preheat the oven to 400F / 200C conventional / 180 fan.

KETO BLUEBERRY CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 160C/320F. Prepare an 8-inch springform pan with the crust of choice. Line with paper for easy removal.
• Using a stand mixer, very lightly beat your softened cream cheese until smooth. Do not overbeat, otherwise the cheesecake will crack. Add the flour, vanilla extract, sour cream, and sugar and until just combined. Add the eggs one at a time, and stop beating once smooth. Once smooth, fold through the blueberries using a rubber spatula.
• Transfer the cheesecake filling into the pie crust and bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes, or until the tops are set and the filling slightly jiggles when touched.
• Allow the cheesecake to cool completely, before refrigerating overnight.
• Once the cheesecake is chilled, cover with the blueberry topping all over the top and refrigerate for a further 2 hours to firm up.

KETO BLUEBERRY PIE

• In a mixing bowl, add the dry ingredients and mix well. Chop the butter into small cubes.

• In a small saucepan, add the blueberry filling into a small saucepan and place over low heat. Once it begins to simmer, gently stir it for 4-5 minutes, before removing it from the heat.
• Place the two balls of dough amongst two pieces of parchment paper. Roll out the dough, allowing one of them to be larger than the other. Place the larger of the two pieces of dough into the pie pan, allowing the sides to overhang. Fill the pie with the filling and spread it out until it is mostly even. Top with the second layer of dough, and crimp the sides. Brush with the egg wash.
