🥥 Making Keto Coconut Cream Pie

This keto coconut cream pie recipe is super simple! Follow these steps:

Preparing The Pie Crust

Start by making the coconut flour pie crust according to my recipe. Let it cool for at least 1 hour before adding the filling.

Keto Coconut Cream Pie Filling

Step 1

Place the egg yolks, whole eggs, xanthan gum, and erythritol into a large bowl. Whisk all the ingredients together until combined.

Step 2

Heat a saucepan over medium heat. Add the coconut milk and heavy cream, and simmer them for about 4 minutes.

It’s important to stir the mixture often to keep it from boiling over.

Step 3

Remove the saucepan and scoop about 1 tablespoon of the hot milk into the egg mixture. Whisk them together well until combined. Repeat this process.

We are adding it slowly to avoid cooking the eggs with the hot milk.

Step 4

Pour the egg mixture into the saucepan, and keep stirring. Place it over medium-low heat and cook for about 6 minutes. At this point- the mixture should be thicker.

Step 5

Remove from the heat and mix in the butter, vanilla, shredded coconut, and coconut extract.

Assembly

Step 1

Pour the coconut pudding into a bowl. Let it cool at mix every 10 to 15 minutes.

Step 2

Spread the mixture evenly into the pie crust. Place a plastic film wrap on it. Refrigerate the pie for 70-80 minutes.

Step 3

Whip whipping cream using an electric beater, combined with vanilla and powdered sweetener.

Once stiff peak forms, top the pie with it. Slice and serve. Enjoy this delicious keto coconut cream pie!

Keto & Cream Pies

Over the years, I made and tried many keto coconut cream pies. Some have been good, but most have been, meh. I’ve even made a few that were flat-out terrible.

But, when I came up with this recipe, it was an instant hit! Everyone at our family gatherings loved it and asked for the recipe.

I like this keto coconut cream pie so much because it’s easy to make, it’s not too sweet, and it has a great coconut flavor.

A slice of this pie contains just 1.5g of net carbs. Eat it with coffee or a good cup of tea for the perfect dessert or snack.

Using Xanthan Gum

In this sugar free coconut cream pie recipe, I use xanthan gum as a thickener.

Xanthan gum is a common food additive that is used to thicken and stabilize food. If you don’t have xanthan gum, you can skip it, but the pie won’t look or taste as good.

It’s not an expensive ingredient, and you can find it at most grocery stores. I recommend buying it, because there are many keto desserts that call for it, and it’s a good ingredient to have on hand.

I hope you liked my keto friendly coconut cream pie recipe! Make this great dessert and let me know how you liked it in the comments below.
