Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups almond flour
- 1/4 cup erythritol or your preferred sweetener
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 1/4 cup coconut cream
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a tart pan with non-stick spray or butter.
- In a medium bowl, combine the almond flour, erythritol, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix until a dough forms.
- Press the dough into the bottom and up the sides of the tart pan evenly. Prick the bottom with a fork to prevent bubbling.
- Bake the crust for 10-12 minutes until golden. Remove from the oven and let it cool.
- In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, lemon juice, lemon zest, coconut cream, and baking powder until smooth.
- Pour the lemon filling into the cooled almond crust and bake for another 20-25 minutes, or until the filling is set and the edges are lightly browned.
- Allow the tart to cool completely before slicing. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or fresh berries if desired.
