Keto Pecan Cream Pie is a rich dessert that contains fewer carbs than a classic pie. This pie prepares quickly in just 45 minutes in the air fryer; you can also bake it in the oven. If you are dairy-intolerant so use vegan butter and coconut cream. It might lead to a change in texture and taste. Almond flour is the reason for the perfect crust. Avoid using coconut flour as it absorbs lots of moisture. Keto Pecan Cream Pie contains 3g net carbs, so we don’t have to worry about the carb count. Pecan pie stores perfectly, so we can prepare the big batch in advance to satisfy the sweet cravings. Enjoy this pecan pie with keto coffee or tea for breakfast or as a post-dinner treat.
