The Best KETO PECAN PIE RECIPE: Sugar Free, Caramelized, & Just 4g Net Carbs!

[@evaz6177]

If you use sugar is NOT keto and no good for diabetics like me. I am very glad she made it like this because now I know how to make it and be able to enjoy it too

[@FlavoursbyMariem]

This is really a great recipe. This video proved that cooking is an art and you are the artist. Thank you so much for the recipe.

[@WholesomeYum]

Thank you so much for the kind words! I see it as a bit of both, art and science :)

I made this pie for Thanksgiving. It’s really a Keto Caramel Pecan Pie. Mine was so ugly I was not about to serve it the regular way so I cut the best looking parts into bite size pieces and it was a hit! Everyone loved it and we didn’t have to serve dessert later bc we ate it while prepping then after our meal. It makes plenty and it’s satisfying so you don’t want a lot. I highly recommend this recipe! Even though I was impatient & didn’t allow it to cool enough before adding the egg and I had small strips of egg in it it still turned out delicious! Thanks Maya!

[@WholesomeYum]

So glad you liked it, Autumn! Agree it’s very filling. Hope you had a wonderful thanksgiving!

[@KetoCookbooksCorner]

*Delicious looking pecan pie. Thank you for the recipe* 🥧

[@reneeshelley4196]

Helpful hack...a coffee filter in place of the parchment paper also works well. :)

[@WholesomeYum]

Oooh, I’m intrigued! Need to try that!

[@gaylelucas5909]

My mouth is watering already! I cannot wait to try this with my Christmas dinner. Thank you so much for your wonderful recipes that make Keto a breeze!

[@donnanordman1584]

Youre a genious with that aluminum foil pie crust cover trick!

[@WholesomeYum]

Glad it's helpful!

I love your blog and these videos.

[@WholesomeYum]

I'm so glad to hear that, Toni!

[@rosawhitfield6110]

It looks delicious! Thanks for shared. Pecan pie is one of my favorite desserts that I really miss on my keto diet.

Hope you’ll try it, Rosa!

CHOCOLATE COBBLER - can you imagine sugar free chocolate cobbler 🤤

[@m.d.40]

Are peach cobbler!

[@RedSapphires]

Thanks for this. Do you have a crust recipe that doesn't have any sugar?

[@StorytimewithSai]

You are amazing! Pecan pie looks perfect 👍 Thank you for sharing this recipe 🥰

[@WholesomeYum]

Thank you, hope you’ll make it!

[@susancollins9074]

For an egg allergy would you totally omit the egg in the filling or would you recommend an egg substitute? Thank you.

[@WholesomeYum]

I wouldn’t just omit it. Aquafaba might work as a substitute but I haven’t tried it to confirm.

[@bethroberts4130]

Looks delicious 😋

[@WholesomeYum]

Thank you 😋

[@MadebyYouandI]

I've been researching pies for my own channel and came across your video. Your recipe looks easy to make and delicious -- pinned it!

[@julieelmore3827]

Do you have a Keto recipe for Pumpkin Pie? If so, would you please post it or do a video? Thanks!!!

[@WholesomeYum]

I do have a recipe here: www.wholesomeyum.com/recipes/easy-keto-low-carb-pumpkin-pie-recipe/ there’s a video on the recipe card but it’s a quick one, not like the pecan pie. I’ll try to make one, will see if I get to it before the holiday! I do have sugar free cranberry sauce coming up on KZbin also :)

[@user-kg5he5kw5y]

Could this pecan pie be made by mixing the ingredients together and pour into the unbaked pie shell like a regular pecan pie, with sugar, instead of cooking the ingredients together first?

[@Reikilady898]

Hi Maya..The Besti Monk fruit allulose blend is not available in Canada on your website and on Amazon. Where can we expect it to be available? Thanks.

[@sheliahumphries8553]

What did you bake the pie on ? 350? What are the # of calories, carbs, etc..?

[@suzannemcclendon]

Hi, I am a new subscriber. Thank you for this channel and this pecan pie recipe. My husband is a brittle diabetic and he loves pecan pie. I am looking for a way to make food in general safer for him. Food is also a challenge for me, too, as I have multiple allergies, especially to fruits. I noticed on your sweetener bag that it says Monk Fruit. Do you know of a natural sweetener, not fruit based because I don't want to risk anaphylaxis with an unknown fruit, that would meet the needs of my diabetic husband? Thank you for any help with this.

[@WholesomeYum]

Thank you for subscribing, Suzanne! Monk fruit is not usually allergenic but it’s in the melon family, if you’re ok with that then monk fruit is fine (but unlike other melons there are no carbs or calories). If you don’t want to take the chance you can use plain allulose: www.wholesomeyumfoods.com/shop/sweeteners/allulose/allulose-sweetener/ you’d need about 30% more of that to achieve the same sweetness.

[@suzannemcclendon]

@@WholesomeYum You're welcome and thank you, too. :) I haven't yet had an adverse reaction to watermelons or cantaloupe, but my allergies have been stepping up over the last few years. I used to be able to eat strawberries without a problem, but not any more. Oranges and grapefruits have caused adverse reactions since childhood, so I avoid them. Thank you for letting me know what kind of fruit Monk fruit is. I've never had it before. I will look into the plain allulose. Thanks for the link. Have a blessed day. :)

Super tree.sugar cream pie

[@andreacallis1986]

Hi, Maya. How do you feel about using one of the store bought Blue Diamond nut crusts with this recipe-they’re made from pecans and walnuts and are about 11 gs of carbs per slice.

[@WholesomeYum]

Hi Andrea, I'm not super familiar with those or their ingredients. 11g net carbs per slice might add up to higher than you'd want on a keto diet by the time you add the filling (and a meal before the dessert), but if it works for your macros or you're just cutting sugar but not keto, it could work! From a recipe standpoint it should be fine.

[@alessiamasola4334]

Amazing! I’m wondering if it works to not use the powdered sweetener and use stevia drops instead for the filling, I’m guessing it might not work as it wouldn’t caramelise maybe? … HMM should I try? 🧐

[@WholesomeYum]

Hi Alessia, I haven't tried it with stevia drops specifically, but don't think that would work well. The sweetener adds bulk so that's one issue. Another is stevia drops definitely won't caramelize the way Besti does.

[@blueslady8014]

As Janet Murray asked below: "What is (the) baking temperature?" :-)

[@akbarshoed]

350 for 10 minutes for crust

[@sharonwagers9360]

Thank you for this great-looking recipe. Are the instructions printed anywhere? I watched the very helpful video but I won't have it when I'm making this.

[@WholesomeYum]

Hi Sharon, yes! The recipe is here: www.wholesomeyum.com/the-best-keto-sugar-free-pecan-pie-recipe/ and there’s a print button if you need it.

[@rachellezafra7686]

What can I substitute for the maple extract?

[@annaeller5884]

Wouldn't it be easier to add the pecans to the caramel before pouring into the pie crust?

[@WholesomeYum]

You could do that but they are more evenly distributed if you put them in the crust first and then pour the caramel on top. Either way would probably work though.

[@colleenmoras7887]

The store is out of Swerve granulated sweetener, and I have already tried the recipe with Splenda Allulose which gave off a bitter aftertaste, can I use the Swerve Confectionary Sweetener and if so do I need to double the amount called for?

[@WholesomeYum]

All forms of Swerve tend to crystallize so I don’t recommend them for pecan pie. You can still try it but the texture is not the best. Don’t double the amount. The sweetener I recommend for this recipe (and really all my baking recipes) is available here: www.wholesomeyumfoods.com/shop/sweeteners/monk-fruit/monk-fruit-allulose-blend/ this is the granulated (normally I do powdered for the filling) but this one dissolves very well so will work fine for both crust and filling (other brands will be gritty in the filling). The powdered is out of stock right now but will be back soon.

[@1963charmaine]

mmm...

[@janetmurray6153]

what is baking temperature?

[@mariadelrefugioriojasherna2679]

Hi!! Can I use coconut oil instead butter in the filling?

[@WholesomeYum]

Hi Maria, I haven't tried that so am not sure, sorry! In theory it should work, but the flavor and texture might be different. Let me know how it turns out if you try that swap.

[@TheCreativeChica]

Is it possible to can the filling to keep in the pantry?

[@WholesomeYum]

I’ve never tried that! I’m not sure if it would go bad, normally the caramel needs to be refrigerated but that’s without canning. Let me know how it goes if you try.

[@artcreationsby1creativedir295]

You don’t mention in the video or on the website what the temperature is for baking the whole pie. You only mention 30 to 35 minutes, no temperature.

[@hildagoodwin202]

Can you use Lekanto sweetner?

[@joshuapineiro2323]

I believe allulose is the sweetener that carmelizes like that. The erythrithol in the lekanto cristalizes when it cools down and doesn't brown as well.

[@WholesomeYum]

@@joshuapineiro2323 you’re exactly right :) I use Besti which is a blend of monk fruit and allulose so it’s sweeter than plain allulose but works the same way.

[@WholesomeYum]

Hilda, I wouldn’t recommend that. The filling comes out much harder, crystallizes, and won’t caramelize.

[@hildagoodwin202]

@@WholesomeYum great. Thank you for your input.

[@CraftyRmom]

where do i get the recipe

[@WholesomeYum]

Hi Marion, I cover the recipe in the video, but here is a written version if you prefer that: www.wholesomeyum.com/the-best-keto-sugar-free-pecan-pie-recipe/

[@donnad8173]

Do you roast your pecan before baking?

[@WholesomeYum]

I don’t, but you could roast the ones for the filling lightly if you like. I wouldn’t roast the ones that go on top, because they already brown while baking.

[@akbarshoed]

That is NOT a nine inch pie pan. 🙄 where is that 9 inches measured?

[@WholesomeYum]

It's a 9-inch pan. Here is the one I used: amzn.to/3kkyA8a
