Savory Keto Pie Crust with Cheddar + Chives

Simply mix the ingredients together. Then use your hands to press them into the pie or tart pan as illustrated in the photos below. You can stop at the second image if you don’t want to flute the pie crust.

Here are the steps in more detail for this low-carb pie crust:

• Preheat oven to 350 F.
• Put the ingredients in a bowl and mix by hand with an electric mixer or food processor or stand mixer.
• Roll dough into ball.
• Shape dough into disk and place in pan.
• Press dough into pie pan, making a flat bottom and moving outwards from the center. Shape sides so they are equally thick.
• If you use a mini saucepan or cup, as pictured above, it’s easier to flatten the bottom and shape the sides.
• Use your pointer finger to flute the edges, if desired.
• Puncture the bottom of the pie with a fork. OR omit the fork and instead use a mini saucepan or glass to flatten any bubbles on the crust’s bottom after removing the baked crust from the oven.
• Bake the cheddar chive keto pie crust for 10-12 minutes at 350 F until light golden brown. However, if you plan on adding filling and baking the pie some more, I recommend simply baking it for about 9 minutes so it sets.
  Tip: When you add the filling, it is a good idea to cover the edges of the pie with aluminum foil or a pie guard so you don’t burn or overbake the edges.
