THE DOUGH

The secret to any good pie crust is using cold butter so that when it bakes you get those air pockets making it flaky. This is easiest in a food processor. Literally takes 5 minutes. You can also cut it in hand with a pastry cutter.

Roll it between two sheets of parchment. Keto crusts are stickier. then flip it and form it into a pie crust.

UNFILLED VS FILLED 

If you’re baking your crust unfilled it’s very simple. If you are baking it filled with a filling that needs baked you’ll most likely have to bake it longer than 10-12 minutes. Low-carb grains such as almond flour and coconut flour can burn more easily even if covered by foil. The solution is to cover the crust with filling as much as you can so that it’s not exposed.
