Method
 

Mastering Dairy-Free Low-Carb Peanut Butter Pie:
  1. Step 1: Prepare the Almond Crust - Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In your food processor, combine the raw almonds, coconut oil, sugar-free confectioners sugar, and raw cacao powder. Pulse until the mixture resembles fine crumbs. If too dry, add more coconut oil one teaspoon at a time.
  2. Step 2: Form the Crust - Transfer the almond mixture to a 9-inch pie dish. Press firmly to form an even crust. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until lightly golden. Allow to cool completely.
  3. Step 3: Soak the Cashews - While the crust cools, soak the raw cashews in water for at least 2 hours.
  4. Step 4: Blend the Filling - Drain the cashews and blend with peanut butter, full-fat coconut milk, sugar-free confectioners sugar, sea salt, and vanilla extract until smooth. Add more coconut milk if too thick.
  5. Step 5: Assemble the Pie - Pour the filling into the cooled crust, spread evenly, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.
  6. Step 6: Prepare the Chocolate Drizzle - Melt the chocolate chips with coconut oil in the microwave until smooth. Let cool slightly.
  7. Step 7: Serve and Enjoy! - Drizzle melted chocolate over the pie, sprinkle with sea salt, slice, and serve.

Notes

  • Soak cashews to achieve a creamy texture.
