Equipment

  • food processor

Ingredients

  • 2 ¼ cups almond flour finely ground
  • ¼ cup unsweetened shredded coconut *or more almond flour if omitting
  • 1 large egg
  • 3 tbsp butter melted (can use ghee for Paleo option)
  • 1 tbsp good quality maple syrup
  • ¼ tsp salt

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Combine all ingredients into the bowl of a food processor. Process just until the mixture sticks together and forms a ball.
  • Press firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate. Poke holes in the bottom of the crust to prevent air pockets.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges are lightly golden. Mine was perfect at 10 minutes, but oven cooking times and temps can vary. Cool completely and fill with your favorite pie filling.
