Ingredients

• 180 grams Almond flour
• 100 grams Unsalted butter
• 1 Egg
• 60 grams Erythritol
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 500 ml Heavy cream
• 200 grams Cream cheese
• 2 teaspoons Gelatin powder
• 3 tablespoons Cold water
• 2 tablespoons Powdered erythritol

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, 60 grams of erythritol, and butter. Mix until it resembles breadcrumbs.

Step 3

Add the egg and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the flour mixture and mix until a dough forms.

Step 4

Split the dough into two equal parts. Roll each part between two sheets of parchment paper until it is about 5mm thick.

Step 5

Transfer the rolled dough to a baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes until golden brown. Let them cool completely.

Step 6

For the custard, start by sprinkling gelatin over 3 tablespoons of cold water and let it bloom for about 5 minutes.

Step 7

In a saucepan, heat 250 ml of heavy cream over medium heat until it simmers, then remove from heat and add the bloomed gelatin, stirring until fully dissolved.

Step 8

In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth, then add the remaining 250 ml of heavy cream, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 2 tablespoons of powdered erythritol. Beat until well combined.

Step 9

Gently fold the gelatin mixture into the cream cheese mixture until well incorporated.

Step 10

Line a square or rectangular dish with parchment paper. Place one layer of the baked pastry at the bottom.

Step 11

Pour the custard mixture over the pastry and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 12

Place the second pastry layer over the custard, gently pressing down to adhere.

Step 13

Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until the custard is set firmly.

Step 14

Once chilled, sprinkle a little extra powdered erythritol on top before slicing and serving. Enjoy your Keto Cremeschnitte!
