I’m in full love with keto lemon meringue pie. And I’m stunned it’s doable to drag this off. Lemon meringue pie holds many reminiscences for me, particularly the diners we used to frequent that may have ten totally different pies on the menu. Classic sky excessive lemon meringue was all the time within the rotating case. I made a decision to make my pie into small tarts, though this recipe is versatile and can make additionally make a pie or a big 9 inch tart.
This tastes identical to its imagined to. The lemon curd is lemony, tart and a bit candy, clean and creamy, not grainy. Whereas I take advantage of the common powdered erythritol for many of my keto desserts, Swerve’s allulose mix is a superb selection for the sort of recipe. Even after refrigerating, the lemon curd won’t crystalize.
TIP: If you wish to use straight allulose, combine it with erythritol. Take into account that allulose is just not as candy as erythritol (Swerve) and you will want to style and make changes. The primary time I made these I used allulose and didn’t use sufficient. I wanted so as to add about 25% greater than erythritol.
Lemon Curd
The sugar free lemon curd is made primarily with lemon juice, sweetener and egg yolks. The egg whites will probably be used to make fluffy meringue.
The almond flour crust is made with melted butter and an egg and is surprisingly an excellent alternative for shortbread crust or pie dough. As you’ll be able to see it holds up properly.
Whereas I made this into particular person tarts, you can also make one massive 8 or 9 inch tart as properly, as I did right here.
