Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, granulated erythritol, and salt.
Add in the butter, cut into small pieces, and rub it into the flour mixture using your fingers until it resembles breadcrumbs.
Beat one egg and add it to the mixture along with the vanilla extract. Mix until a dough forms.
Divide the dough into two portions (about 2/3 and 1/3), wrap them in plastic wrap, and chill for at least 30 minutes.
For the filling, in a saucepan, combine the chopped walnuts, heavy cream, and powdered erythritol. Heat over medium heat until the mixture bubbles. Stir frequently to avoid burning.
Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for an additional 5 minutes or until it thickens slightly. Allow it to cool.
Roll out the larger dough portion between two sheets of parchment paper. Fit it into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan, pressing the dough up the sides.
Pour the cooled nut filling into the crust-lined pan.
Roll out the remaining dough and cover the filling, sealing the edges carefully.
Whisk the second egg and brush it over the top crust for a nice golden finish.
Prick the top with a fork to create steam holes. Bake your torte in the preheated oven for 45–50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
Allow the Nusstorte to cool completely before removing from the pan and serving.
