That pie crust looks legit! 🤗 -Sarah

[@KetoFocus]

It’s so good! I could just eat the crust by itself 🤣

[@jeweliedee4299]

I wanted so much for this pie crust to be as easy as you made it look. Oh, yes, you can roll it out, but good luck getting it off the parchment! I chilled it multiple times trying to make it work. I ended up scraping it off and putting it into the pan like a patchwork quilt. I will try it one more time with a little more of each of the flours. UPDATE: I baked the crust, and it baked up pretty well. For those who wonder how it tastes, it doesn't taste like non-keto pie crust, and there is a strong scent of creamed cheese, but it is crispy enough that it is adequate as a vehicle to hold a tasty filling.

[@LisaSoulLevelHealing]

So, it tastes like regular pie crust? I wasnt quite sure how this was written.

[@woodsterski6045]

You should talk about the “pro tip” of using a moist paper towel under your parchment paper to stop it from sliding all around the counter. You can use the same method with a cutting board. Looks delicious!

[@KetoFocus]

Yes! That is such an awesome tip!!

Hi there is a fruit call papaya, I’m Puerto Rican and we make it green papaya and it tastes exactly like apples I thought I mention it since it tastes same not the ripe one green one we cook it and add same ingredients as if you were making apple pie like in your video until all water is absorb since is like the chayote has a lots of water I hope you try !

How did it turn out for you Caitlin?

[@johnnypenso9574]

If you can find them (hard to find in my corner of Canada) Jicama might also make a great apple substitute. Crisp and tart/sweet like an apple but only around 22 net carbs/lb. Chayote squash is around 14 net carbs/lb for comparison.

[@maidenminnesota1]

The only problem is that jicama never gets soft. I love them and they actually taste a little bit like an apple, but all the cooking in the world and they still remain slightly crunchy.

[@b.freeman2118]

How do you cook jicama?

[@punkyfeathers1639]

Great recipe! Thanks so much. One thing that I have found helps in warmer weather (I often have temps higher that 110) is to freeze your butter and grate it into the dry ingredients.

Just double-checking: You don't bake the bottom crust before adding the apple pie filling, correct?

I'm a pretty good baker, including making good pie crust. I'm excited to try this crust recipe!

[@BoxMountainLLC]

Just curious as to what size pie plate are you using? Is it the standard 9"? I would think the size of the dish would be dependent on how much dough you have.

[@KetoFocus]

Yes, it’s a standard 9 inch but it’s pretty deep.

[@myworldmeumundo2633]

I'm not giving up my apples....but your pie came out beautiful ❤

[@jonnelszentgyorgi1677]

What would you recommend to make more liquid in the pie? I like pies that have lots of thick fruit (I'm going to call it sauce) filling.

[@johnnypenso9574]

Cut up some extra filling (squash and zucchini in this case), puree and add spices and thickener.

[@chloezapata4152]

Somewhere someone said speak the zucchini in apple cinnamon tea so I used that as part of the water. I only had two zucchini so I tried to cook down the liquid. I still have too much thick sauce but it's so cooked down it's now chunky applesauce. Still tastes great 😃

Since being on keto a year now I thought I would never make or eat apple pie for the rest of my life. Can I say I love you🥰❤💯

[@KayDejaVu]

Just add a small amount of apple with flavoring. No need to swear off apple. That's ridiculous.

[@lowcarbkitchen]

Looks amazing! Thanks especially for the pie crust. I have never been able to find a good one that does not become soggy. I'll have to try this with my lacto fermented apples.

[@ellensheppard3996]

What kind of sweetener is the best choice when I'm trying to stay away from processed sugar? Btw...what is that carmel sauce you drizzled on top?

​@@KetoFocus Thank you😉I just picked up all the ingredients and I'm going to try your pie today!

[@grahambate3384]

Gr8 video. Here in Australia commercial apple pies, have mixture of apples and choko. My mum had a choko vine, when I was a kid. It grow wild with little care. The choko take on the flavour of what you cook it with. Being one of six kids. My mum use to add it to mash potatoes and Sunday roast.

[@Lucinda_Jackson]

LOL I was curious, thinking there was yet another alternative, but knowing things are called by different names in different places I went to Google to see what other option there was! Choko and chayote are the same. I laughed at myself for not seeing that coming! 💕

[@carolablue5293]

Pears have a lower glycemic index than apples due to their fiber content. Maybe they would make a better pie?

[@MrsBridgette2012]

Wow, what a great idea. I have several keto chow flavor packets.

[@mayrazamora9258]

Looks delicious!! thank you for sharing, I would like to try it, is there something to replace the arrowroot? I can't find it where I live, thank you.

[@KetoFocus]

You can just omit it or add more xanthan gum

[@mayrazamora9258]

@@KetoFocus thank you

[@Lucinda_Jackson]

You could try tapioca flour. It’s pretty much everywhere and has about the same carbs as arrowroot (actually a few less) and you use measure for measure.

When I make an apple pie I use a combo of apples. Can I mix these 2 alternatives or should it be one or the other

[@michelemarch8606]

Did anyone think this pastry is way too salty? I used 1 tsp of table salt. I subsequently checked other recipes, and if I make it again, I would halve the salt.

[@KetoCookbooksCorner]

*This looks amazing. Thank you for your hard work* 😍

[@JamieMontana]

Thank you for this recipe, I did it and it has a good taste! the only downside is that the crust didn't get crispy enough :( I noticed when making it that it was a little too moist, so I had to add more flour... next time I will be adding only one egg instead of two... or maybe not so much apple cider vinegar...

I decided to try this. It was awesome. My husband loved it too. Pastry was great. The Apple flavour was great. I might use a tiny bit less erythritol next time as we don’t mind things a little less sweet. Still can’t believe the chayote squash. Never tried them before. Thanks so much.

Lol! You can use a a pastry blender or cut the butter with a fork. It takes longer and you will have to make sure you butter is very cold to keep it from melting into the crust but it will work. 😄

[@emdame]

She does not use apples. Watch🙂

[@josebrivera1716]

I made this exactly as she says. All the same measurements and cooking time. But the Chayote came out as dense as regular apples. They did not get soft like a regular apple would after being in the oven. The chayote was crunchy. Did I do something wrong?

[@KetoFocus]

That's a bummer! You want to cook the chayote until it's softened. It depends on the thickness too so it may take longer than stated.

[@josebrivera1716]

I will remember that for next time. Oh, it tasted just like Apple Pie!! Thank you. @@KetoFocus

Somewhere I have a 100 year-old recipe for pie crust and it calls for similar ingredients, egg, vinegar, etc, so this will work great, thanks so much. (It did call for lard, so appreciate your recipe even more.)

[@janedoe0000]

Something that would take this pie up a notch (as if it really needs it...I'm sure it's spectacular as is) is apple PIE extract instead of apple extract in the filling. Maybe even in the crust! Yum!!

[@coloradocorri]

I’m sure that the moldable magic of the crust is tied to the xanthum gum. Unfortunately, I am pretty sure xanthum gum gives me digestion issues and discomfort. I don’t suppose the is a good sub for it?

[@1thinkhealthy]

I usually sub it with a bit of chia seeds, flax and psyllium husk. Seems to work good for me. Haven't tried this recipe yet but looking forward to it. Bert

[@johnnypenso9574]

Guar gum. Use 2:1 guar gum/xanthan gum when substituting. Gelating might also work but not sure of the ratios.

[@alwaysright5901]

​@@johnnypenso9574 Yes, I believe guar gum should work. Whenever a recipe calls for xanthun gum, I sub it for glucomannan powder.

I did not have high hopes for this recipe, I mean how can you make squash taste like apples. I went ahead and tried it just to see and was VERY pleasantly surprised at how good it was. Thank you. I used the chayote squash and thought the texture of the squash was very similar to apple, not sure how the zucchini would hold up in the heat texture-wise but the chayote was great. When I peeled it, it was like peeling an apple. I also made it a bit sweeter used Allulose and Sucrin gold for the 3/4c sugar sub plus added 20 drops of stevia. To my taste it could have been even a little sweeter; perhaps more stevia sucralose. Anyway it was a very good recipe.

[@Lucinda_Jackson]

Hi Annie! This looks fantastic, but I have to tell you that I almost missed it. I left it sitting in my Notifications, sort of wondering if you’d lost your mind, and went in this morning thinking I’d delete it. I knew I couldn’t eat apples with all their sugar, so why even look, right? But then I got curious. I know I’ve always shared the same idea if keto-acceptable foods, so I just had to see what you did here. I’m so glad I stopped to realize you wouldn’t use regular apples and had a look at this recipe! Maybe you could consider putting quotes around “Apple Pie” or even just “Apple” in the title? I wonder how many passed by your wonderful recipe thinking you’d lost it with this one?! 😉 Can’t wait to try it! ETA: I really should have known better! This is pretty much the crust from your single serving pumpkin pie last Thanksgiving and you used zucchini in your Apple Fritter recipe from around the same time. I never made your fritters, but the pumpkin pie was delish and MADE my T-day!

FYI: I made this pie twice over the weekend...the 1st time it tasted disgusting so I thought it was because I used the wrong sugar free sweetener (I used plain erythritol) b/c the instructions didn't specify which one so I just took a shot...the 2nd one I made tasted 90% better...I suggest using Swerve sweetener instead but I figured out that the problem is the apple extract I used (One On One Fuji Apple) it made the filling very bitter...I believe they have other apple flavors so I will definitely try it again b/c other than that, it came out great!
