This Low Carb and chocolate keto pie is a silky smooth sugar free chocolate pudding filling in a melt in your mouth almond flour and butter crust. The perfect keto holiday treat!
Wow wow wow. This Keto Pie is going to blow your mind. I’m not even kidding.
Not only is the low carb chocolate pudding filling amazing, but so is the easy almond flour pie crust. I literally had it in the oven in about 5 minutes. No rolling the dough out or chilling it in the fridge necessary. I got the recipe from my friend over at Wholesome Yum.
I’m normally not a dessert maker because desserts require precise measurements and messy ingredients. This sugar free chocolate pie is so easy, though. The hardest part is waiting for it to set up in the fridge!
Let’s get started with this yummy keto pie!
After I had my crust made and in the oven, I started on the chocolate pudding filling. Chop your bakers chocolate ahead of time so it is ready to go!
I added the sweetener, corn starch, a pinch of salt, and xanthan gum to a medium sauce pan and whisked it all together. I then added the almond milk and egg yolks and whisked that together and cooked it on medium heat. When the mixture barely comes to a boil and looks like pudding, remove it from the heat and stir in the bakers chocolate, vanilla, cocoa powder, and butter.
After your pie crust comes out of the oven, pour this amazingly silky chocolate pudding in it and try not to eat it all. Put the pie in the refrigerator to set up and then commence with licking the bowl.
After the keto pie has set up (about 4 hours) remove it from the fridge and slice into that bad boy.
I might have eaten 2 slices, or I might have not. I might have eaten the whole pie, or I might have not.

Mary says
I made this pie last night…it tasted delicious! Perfect I’m every way. Today there are crystals throughout the chocolate filling. The flavor is still amazing but the crystals are weird. What did I do wrong?
jenniferbanz says
I’m not sure, as I’ve not had that happen.
Megan Becraft says
I had the same thing happen twice. I dont understand what I am doing wrong. Please help!
Jessica says
It’s the granular sweetener. Some of them don’t melt well or will re-crystalize. Do a Google search for “good keto sweeteners for baking.” Generally I think Swerve works well but mileage may vary. You can also run sweetener in a food processor or blender before using it to make it finer.
