Keto Chipotle Pie
Ingredients:
For the crust:
3/4 cup almond flour
2 tablespoons coconut flour
1 tablespoon flaxseed meal
3 tablespoons cold butter, cut into small pieces
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
For the filling:
1/2 cup whole milk ricotta cheese
2 large eggs
1/2 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
1 teaspoon chipotle powder
1 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C).
2. To make the crust, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, flaxseed meal, butter, sea salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Use a pastry cutter to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles a coarse meal.
3. Press the crust mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch round pie tin. Bake for 15 minutes, until the crust is lightly golden. Set aside to cool.
4. To make the filling, combine the ricotta cheese, eggs, cheddar cheese, cream cheese, chipotle powder, and sea salt in a medium bowl. Stir until combined.
5. Pour the filling into the pre-baked pie crust and spread it into an even layer. Bake for 35-45 minutes, until the center of the pie is set.
6. Allow the pie to cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
