Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds Beef chuck steak
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 medium Onion, diced
• 1 small Carrot, diced (optional for minimal carb impact)
• 2 stalks Celery, diced
• 1 cup Mushrooms, sliced
• 1 cup Sugar-free ale or low-carb beer
• 1 cup Beef broth
• 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
• 1 teaspoon Thyme, dried
• 0.5 teaspoons Xanthan gum
• 2 cups Almond flour
• 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
• 0.5 cup Butter, cold and cubed
• 1 large Egg
• 2 tablespoons Water

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Season the beef chuck steak with salt and black pepper.

Step 3

Heat a large dutch oven or deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sear the beef until browned on all sides, in batches if necessary. Remove and set aside.

Step 4

In the same pan, add the remaining olive oil and sauté the garlic, onion, carrot (if using), celery, and mushrooms for 5-7 minutes until softened.

Step 5

Pour the sugar-free ale into the pan to deglaze, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.

Step 6

Return the beef to the pan and add the beef broth, tomato paste, and thyme. Stir to combine.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to low, cover, and allow the mixture to simmer for 1.5 hours or until the beef is tender.

Step 8

Once the filling is done, sprinkle xanthan gum over the mixture and stir well to thicken. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.

Step 9

To make the keto crust, combine almond flour, coconut flour, and a pinch of salt in a mixing bowl.

Step 10

Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the cubed butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 11

In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg and water, then pour into the flour mixture. Stir until a dough forms.

Step 12

Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out into a circle large enough to cover your pie dish.

Step 13

Transfer the beef filling into a pie dish, then carefully lay the crust over the top, trimming any excess dough.

Step 14

Seal the edges and make a small slit in the center of the crust to allow steam to escape.

Step 15

Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.

Step 16

Remove from the oven and let the pie cool for 10 minutes before serving.
