One of the biggest challenges was to create a crust that doesn't have a sweet aftertaste. If you ever used almond flour in savoury recipes, you know what I'm talking about.

One way to mask the sweet taste is to add spices, cheese and flaxmeal. Another way is to use ground pork rinds, a common low-carb ingredient made from dehydrated & fried pork skins.

Where Can I Buy Pork Rinds?

Although I prefer making my own, you can buy ready made pork rinds online. Just make sure you stay way from unhealthy additives (maltodextrin, gluten, etc.). Most pork rind products (aka pork skins, cracklings or chicharrones) contain salt - that's fine but will limit their use to savoury meals only.

To powder the pork rinds into fine flour, I'm using my Kenwood mixer with a food processor attachment.

How To Make Savory Keto Pie Crust

Make sure you use a kitchen scale for measuring all the dry ingredients. Using just cups may not be enough to achieve best results, especially in baked goods. Weights per cups and tablespoons may vary depending on the product/brand or if you make you own ingredients (like flaxmeal from flaxseeds). This recipe makes 8 servings. You can either use 8 small tart pans or one regular.

You can either use 8 mini tart pans like these, or a regular 9-inch tart pan. In either case, pans with removable bottoms work best for this recipe. I also used ceramic baking beans to weight the dough down.

If you want to add flavour to your keto pie crust, try some of these options:

tsp chili powder (+ 0.1 g net carbs per serving) 1 / 2 tsp onion powder + 1 / 2 tsp garlic powder (+ 0.2 g net carbs per serving)

tsp onion powder + tsp garlic powder (+ 0.2 g net carbs per serving) 1 / 2 tsp curry powder + 1 / 4 tsp ground cumin + 1 / 4 tsp turmeric powder (+ 0.1 g net carbs)

tsp curry powder + tsp ground cumin + tsp turmeric powder (+ 0.1 g net carbs) 1/ 2 tsp dried oregano + 1/ 2 tsp dried basil + 1/ 2 tsp dried thyme + 1/ 4 tsp dried lemon zest or 1 tsp fresh lemon zest (+ 0.1 g net carbs per serving)

Martina Slajerova Creator of KetoDietApp.com I changed the way I ate in 2011, when I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s, an autoimmune disease that affects the thyroid. I had no energy, and I found it more and more difficult to maintain a healthy weight. That’s when I decided to quit sugar, grains, and processed foods, and to start following a whole-foods-based ketogenic approach to food. More posts by Martina Slajerova Martina Slajerova
