Ingredients

• 100 grams Almond flour
• 30 grams Coconut flour
• 60 grams Unsalted butter
• 1 large Egg
• 40 grams Erythritol
• 1 pinch Salt
• 180 ml Heavy cream
• 100 ml Water
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 3 large Egg yolks

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, and a pinch of salt.

Step 3

Cut the unsalted butter into small cubes and add to the flour mixture. Blend using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Add the egg and mix until the dough comes together. If the dough feels too dry, add a teaspoon of water.

Step 5

Press the dough evenly into 8 tartlet tins, ensuring an even thickness. Prick the bottoms with a fork.

Step 6

Bake the tart crusts for 8-10 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from oven and let them cool slightly.

Step 7

While the tart shells are cooling, prepare the custard filling. In a saucepan, combine erythritol, water, and heavy cream. Heat gently until erythritol dissolves, then remove from heat.

Step 8

In a bowl, beat the egg yolks lightly, then slowly whisk in the warm cream mixture. Add vanilla extract and mix until smooth.

Step 9

Strain the custard mixture through a fine mesh sieve to ensure a smooth filling.

Step 10

Fill the tart shells with the custard mixture, leaving a little bit of space at the top.

Step 11

Bake the filled tart shells in the oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the custard is set but still slightly jiggly in the center.

Step 12

Remove from oven and allow to cool completely before serving. Enjoy your keto-friendly egg tarts!
