Ingredients
2½ cups almond flour (240 g)
½ teaspoon salt
¼ cup avocado oil or butter
1 egg
2 ounces cheddar cheese, grated
2 tablespoons chives, chopped
Instructions
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Mix Ingredients
Place the almond flour, salt, avocado oil (or butter), egg, grated cheddar cheese, and chopped chives in a bowl. Mix well using a spoon or spatula until a dough forms. Alternatively, combine the ingredients in a stand mixer for faster mixing.
Form the Dough
Roll the dough into a ball, then shape it into a disk.
Press into Pan
Place the dough disk into a pie pan and press it evenly across the bottom and up the sides. Start from the center and work outward, making sure the crust thickness is even.
Shape the Edges
Use your fingers to shape or flute the edges if desired.
Prepare for Baking
Lightly puncture the bottom of the crust with a fork to prevent bubbling. Alternatively, you can smooth out bubbles with a small saucepan or glass after baking.
Bake
Bake the crust for 10–12 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. If you plan to add filling and bake again, bake for about 9 minutes just until the crust sets.
Notes
Almond flour keeps this crust gluten-free and keto-friendly.
Pre-baking helps prevent a soggy bottom when adding fillings.
This crust works well for quiche, savory tarts, and keto pot pies.
Let the crust cool slightly before adding fillings for best texture.
