“Class” Notes:

Making The Keto Sugar Cookie Pizza Crust-

My versatile grain free keto shortbread cookie recipe has been the base for so many recipes (like these incredible Keto Lemon Bars). It’s just a few ingredients and is easy to assemble with the help of a food processor.

What if I don’t have a food processor?

This recipe is still doable, but may need one extra step. The food processor is the easiest way to cut the cold butter into the dough and without one it could be difficult to do by hand. One tip you often see me give here is to freeze your butter and use a cheese grater and grate it in instead. This allows the butter to be small enough to be mixed into the dough cohesively.

Can I sub coconut flour for the almond flour?

Unfortunately, in most cases the two are not interchangeable because the properties of each are very different. This cookie comes out best with almond flour (coconut flour will be a lot more crumbly and will not hold the crust together well).

Assembling the crust-

Once the cookie dough comes together, grease the tart pan and press it in across the pan in a smooth and thin layer with a spatula or your hands. Bake it in a preheated oven to 350 degrees until lightly golden brown. Cool completely before filling!

The Filling

The filling is simple to make and is made up of cream cheese, mascarpone (can sub cream cheese if desired), vanilla, and low carb powdered sweetener. Powdered works best for the filling so it isn’t gritty or grainy. Combine everything and whip it together until smooth and fluffy.

What can I use if I am dairy free?

Sub out the sour cream and mascarpone with some whipped coconut cream. Add the same ingredients and mix until combined. Add over the sugar cookie crust and spread it across the top.

Assembling Your Fruit Pizza-

For this recipe, I love to use all my favorite berries. Berries are your best bet for using low carb fruits for this recipe. Though these berries are low carb keto friendly, they can add up so be careful if you’re tracking!

A good rule of thumb for net carbs in berries is:

Strawberries- A medium size strawberry is about 1 net carb.

Blackberries- 1/2 cup is about 4 net carbs

Raspberries- 1/2 cup is roughly 3 net carbs

Blueberries- 1/2 cup is around 9 net carbs

Assemble them as desired. I love to slice the strawberries thin and fan them out, add in the raspberries and blackberries, then pile the blueberries into the middle. I like to slice a strawberry and fan it out in the middle. Garnish with mint if desired and serve as is. This fruit pizza serves eight larger size pieces.

Storing Your Fruit Pizza-

This stores really well! Lightly cover it with plastic wrap and leave it in the fridge. The chances of leftovers is fairly low, but if you have leftovers this will last for up to a week. Be sure to keep it cold so the berries stay fresh!

Ingredients

• Cookie Crust:
• 1 3/4 cups Almond Flour
• 1 tsp Salt
• 6 Tbsp. Cold Butter diced into chunks
• 1 tsp. Xanthan gum
• 1 Egg
• 1 tsp. Vanilla
• 1/4 cup Low Carb Sweetener or your favorite low carb sweetener
• Filling:
• 6 oz. Mascarpone or softened cream cheese
• 1/4 cup Sour Cream
• 1/2 tsp Vanilla
• 1/4 cup Powdered Low Carb Sweetener
• 8 Strawberries sliced thin
• 1/4 cup Raspberries
• 1/4 cup Blackberries
• 1/2 cup Blueberries

Instructions

• In a food processor, combine the dry cookie ingredients and pulse until combine. Add in the cold butter and pulse again until it looks like course cornmeal. Add in the vanilla and the egg and mix until the dough is smooth and cohesive.
• Press the filling into a greased tart pan or pie plate using a rubber spatula. Make sue the dough is evenly spread and lightly goes up the sides. Bake in a preheat 350 degree oven for 12-15 minutes until lightly golden brown and set. Let cool completely before filling.
• While the cookie crust is baking, combine the mascarpone (or softened cream cheese), sour cream, powdered low carb sweetener, and vanilla together into a bowl. Mix with a spatula until light and fluffy. Add to the cooled cookie crust and spread it evenly across the top.
• Assemble the top with the fruit and place in the fridge to set. You can serve and slice this right away but I do like the filling to set back up slightly before slicing. Store in the fridge covered for up to a week.

Notes

Dairy free? Sub the dairy for coconut cream for the filling instead!
