🍋 Making Keto Lemon Meringue Pie

Make the perfect low carb sugar free lemon meringue pie at home! Follow these simple steps:

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350F (175C). We will start by preparing the crust.

Add the almond flour, coconut flour, and salt to a large mixing bowl. Whisk everything together.

Then, use a pastry cutter to cut the butter. Add it in, add water, and mix until dough forms (shape into a ball).

Step 2

Press the dough into the middle of the pie pan. Shape it into the pan by pushing it up.

Then, create holes in the crust using a fork. Bake for about 20 minutes or until it turns crispy and golden. Set it aside to cool.

Step 3

And now we are going to make the filling. Place the sweetener into a new mixing bowl. Add gelatin and whisk them together until combined. Pour the water and whisk vigorously. Don’t let the gelatin form clumps.

Step 4

Add the egg yolks and lemon juice. Whisk until well combined. Pour the mixture into a saucepan and bring to low boil. Stir all the time to avoid burning.

Once it starts boiling- remove it from the heat. Let it cool for about 20 minutes.

Step 5

Pour the mixture into the pie crust, and place in the freezer for 3 hours.

Step 6

To make the sugar free meringue topping- start by setting your oven to broil. Separate your egg whites and pour them into a mixing bowl.

Mix in the sweetener, gelatin, and cream of tartar. Whip all the ingredients together using a hand mixer until you reach stiff peaks.

Step 7

Spread the whipped egg whites over the lemon filling. Cook in the oven (broil setting) for 3-4 minutes.

The peaks will start to turn golden brown. Place the pie back into the freezer for 35-40 minutes. Then, slice and serve.

Enjoy this amazing keto lemon meringue pie!

Almond & Coconut Flour

I chose to make the crust for this keto lemon meringue pie out of almond and coconut flour.

Both of these flours are a great low carb alternative to traditional wheat flour and they add a nice nutty flavor that pairs perfectly with the citrusy lemon filling.

The coconut flour also helps to bind the ingredients together, giving the crust a nice texture.

I use almond flour and coconut flour in so many of my keto friendly recipes.

I also like combining them- the almond flour gives the texture, while the coconut flour helps to bind the ingredients together.

Swerve Confectioner

I used the non-granular version of Swerve Confectioner to make this keto meringue pie. I think it works very well and adds just the right amount of sweetness.

If you don’t have access to Swerve, you can use any other keto friendly sweetener such as erythritol or monk fruit.
