Keto cherry cream pie is refreshing keto pie with cherries and creamy keto pie filling.
Again I was very active with baking and cooking during the weekend so I created few really delicious recipes. As I am in a very busy life period, I don't have time to publish every keto recipe I would love to share with you, so I organized a little voting on my Instagram account. And, you all voted for this creamy keto cherry pie.
There was a really tight race between cookies and this low carb cherry pie, and pie won!
That's not strange, because this low carb cream cherry pie is really delicious! It's flavorful, refreshing and creamy, on a wonderful and tasty almond pie crust... It has all the components of a really delicious keto dessert.
My kids love it, and my family members who are not on keto asked for a slice more! So, it was a huge win. And, this is so easy keto cherry pie. You really don't have to have some special baking super powers, just a good will to try to make it.
TIPS TO MAKE KETO CHERRY CREAM PIE
KETO ALMOND PIE CRUST
This keto pie crust is so easy to make. I was using ground almonds, but you can use almond flour instead or blanched almond meal, actually whatever version of almonds you have. Everything will be delicious, I'm sure.
You will just need to combine all the ingredients to make a dough and press it into a pie pan. Bake it on 180 C/350 F for 10 minutes just to make it firm. It won't be firm immediately after baking, you will need to leave it to rest after baking for at least 15 minutes to become firm. Also, after baking it could be a little bit puffed, but you can just gently press it with a spoon or a fork to make it flat.
KETO CHERRY PIE FILLING
This pie filling is sweet, creamy and delicious. It goes perfectly with sour cherries. To make this low carb sweet pie filling, also you don't have to cook or bake heavily, just mix eggs, sweetener, vanilla, cinnamon, heavy whipping cream and mascarpone cheese until you get a nice and smooth cream.
Pour the filling over the pie crust, put on top cherries and bake it in a preheated oven on 180 C/350 F for 30 minutes.
After it was baked, leave it in the fridge for few hours because it taste much better when it's cold.
DECORATION
I decorated this cherry pie with melted sugar-free white chocolate and some whipped heavy cream. This is totally optional and you can do it if you like it. When it's decorated like this it looks really decadent. However, it gives to the pie a little bit more carbs too, so I leave this as your choice to decide.

This is SO delicious! I made some changes by using a combination of pecans, hazelnuts and pistachios in the crust as I find almond flour crusts a bit boring on their own, sorry! 🙂 I used powdered allulose in the filling for a smoother mouthfeel, and also ended up having to bake this for much longer than written, around 45 minutes, so maybe your oven runs a bit hot? Other than that, this recipe is fantastic and j will be making this often, thank you so much 🙂

Hi Anu, thank you so much for commenting! I'm so glad you loved it. Yes, my oven bakes much faster, is it maybe because of European calibration? 🙂

Didn’t turn out well at all for me. Baked the crust for 10 minutes, waited, then baked with the filling - but only 2 minutes into the bake, the crust was nearly black and the filling was still liquid even though it was very brown on top. Definitely tasted burnt even with less baking time.
Family On Keto says
Hi Lynn, so sorry to hear. On what temperature did you bake it? It shouldn't be burned after altogether 12 minutes baking.
Lynn says
I baked it at 350F.
