Keto Baked Brie is a low-carb twist on classic baked brie with an almond flour pie crust that wraps a wheel of Brie topped with cinnamon pecans and brown sugar.
1/4cupzero-calorie brown sugar , (I like Monkfruit)
Pie crust:
1cupalmond flour
1/2cupcoconut flour
3tablespoonslow-carb sweetener
1/2teaspoonxanthum gum
7tablespoonssalted butter, cold and cubed (if using unsalted add 1/4 teaspoon of salt)
1egg
1/2teaspoonvanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Then in a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Saute the pecans in the butter until golden brown, approximately 5 minutes. Add the cinnamon and stir until pecans are coated well. Set aside.
For the pie crust: Add the almond flour, coconut flour, low-carb sweetener, and xanthum gum to a food processor and pulse to mix.
Add the butter, egg, and vanilla to the food processor and pulse until it forms a ball.
Wrap in plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes. Roll out crust in between sheets of parchment paper to about an 8-inch circle. Place the Brie on top of the dough.
Next, place the pecan mixture on top of the Brie and sprinkle the zero calorie brown sugar over the mixture. . Gather up the edges of the brie, pressing around the brie and gather at the top. Fold and pinch the edges together so it doesn’t come open. Place on a cookie sheet and bake for 12-18 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Slice an serve alone or with Keto crackers.
