Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups almond flour
  • ¼ cup erythritol or sweetener of choice
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup cream cheese, softened
  • ¼ cup fresh orange juice
  • Zest of 1 orange
  • 1 teaspoon gelatin (optional, for thicker consistency)
  • Orange slices and whipped cream for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, erythritol, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
  3. Press the mixture into a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust. Bake for 10-12 minutes until lightly golden. Let it cool.
  4. In another bowl, whip heavy cream until soft peaks form. In a separate bowl, blend cream cheese, orange juice, orange zest, and sweetener until smooth.
  5. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until combined. If using gelatin, dissolve it in warm water and mix it in at this stage.
  6. Pour the orange cream filling into the cooled crust and spread evenly. Refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours, or until set.
  7. Garnish with orange slices and whipped cream before serving.
