Ingredients

2 1/2 Cup
Almond flour
(blanched)
1/3 Cup Erythritol
(or any sweetener)
1/4 tsp
Sea salt
1/4 Cup Ghee
(measured solid, & then melted)
1 Large Egg
(or 2 tbsp extra ghee)
1 tsp Vanilla extract
(optional)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (177 degrees C). Place the base of a 9 in (23 cm) round pie skillet with parchment paper or grease it.
Take a large bowl, combine the almond flour, erythritol (if utilizing), and sea salt.
Mix in the liquefied ghee and egg, until all get mixed. (In the case of utilizing vanilla, mix that into the dissolved ghee before adding to the dry ingredient.) The "dough" will be crumbly and dry. Continue blending, squeezing and mixing, until it's uniform, and there is no almond flour powder left. (On the other hand, you can utilize a nourishment processor to combine everything.)
Press the mixture into the base of the readied skillet. You can shape the edges of as you desire; if it breaks, then press back together. Cautiously make holes in the base using a fork to avoid forestall foaming.
Bake it for 10-12 minutes, until the pie crust gets slightly golden. (Add fillings simply after baking.)

Notes

Sweetener note:
The quantity of sweetener that is most suitable will change based on the filling. Add 1/3 cup for a sweet crust, 1/4 cup for a rather mildly sweet crust (if you want to super-sweet filling).
Add 1/2 cup for a sweeter crust (if you like a sweeter crust) OR drop sweetener for the delicious crust.
Serving size: 1 slice, or 1/12 of the whole recipe.
