Ingredients

• 500 grams ground beef
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 2 large garlic cloves, minced
• 250 grams button mushrooms, sliced
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 200 milliliters beef stock
• 1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon xanthan gum
• 1.5 cups almond flour
• 2 tablespoons coconut flour
• 1 tablespoon psyllium husk powder
• 50 grams butter, melted
• 1 large egg
• 1 large egg yolk, for brushing

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 3

Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula. Drain any excess fat.

Step 4

Stir in the sliced mushrooms and cook until they soften, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 5

Mix in the tomato paste, beef stock, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Let the mixture simmer for 10 minutes.

Step 6

Sprinkle the xanthan gum over the mixture and stir well to thicken. Remove the skillet from heat and set aside.

Step 7

In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, and psyllium husk powder.

Step 8

Add the melted butter and egg to the flour mixture, and stir until a dough forms.

Step 9

Roll out the dough between two sheets of parchment paper until it's large enough to fit your pie dish.

Step 10

Gently press the dough into a 9-inch pie dish, trimming any excess from the edges.

Step 11

Pour the beef and mushroom filling into the pie crust.

Step 12

Beat the egg yolk and brush it over the edges of the pie crust.

Step 13

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

Step 14

Allow the pie to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
