Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Almond flour
• 0.25 cup Coconut flour
• 0.5 cup Erythritol sweetener
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 medium Zucchini (peeled and sliced thin)
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
• 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
• 0.5 teaspoon Xanthan gum

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9-inch tart pan with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, mix together almond flour, coconut flour, and 1/4 cup of erythritol.

Step 3

Melt 1/2 cup of butter and mix it into the dry ingredients along with the egg and vanilla extract. Combine until a dough forms.

Step 4

Press the dough evenly into the bottom of the prepared tart pan. Prick the base with a fork to prevent bubbling.

Step 5

Bake the crust in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let it cool.

Step 6

While the crust is cooling, prepare the filling by adding the sliced zucchini to a bowl and toss with lemon juice.

Step 7

In a separate small bowl, mix the remaining erythritol, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon zest, and xanthan gum.

Step 8

Add the dry mixture to the zucchini, tossing to coat the slices well to resemble the texture of apples.

Step 9

Once the crust has cooled, arrange the zucchini slices over the crust, layering them in slight overlapping patterns.

Step 10

Bake the assembled tart for an additional 15 minutes, until the zucchini has softened and the spices are fragrant.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving your Keto Apple Tart Slice!
