Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup of unsalted butter (melted and cooled)
- 2 large eggs (room temperature)
- 1 cup of almond flour (measured and sifted)
- ½ cup of coconut flour
- ½ teaspoon of sea salt
- 2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese (melted)
- 3 cups of sliced rhubarb (½-inch pieces)
- 3 cups of fresh strawberries (sliced)
- ½ cup of granulated sugar substitute
- 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter (cut into small pieces to dot the pie filling)
- 1 ½ teaspoons psyllium husk powder
- ¼ teaspoon of sea salt
- ½ teaspoon of vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, and salt. Set aside.
- Melt the butter and add it to the dry ingredients. Mix quickly, then add the eggs and combine thoroughly.
- Melt the mozzarella cheese in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between. Once fully melted, add to the dough mixture and knead until fully incorporated.
- Divide the dough in half and wrap each portion in parchment paper. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Roll out the dough between two sheets of parchment paper. Place one disc into a 9-inch pie pan and smooth any cracks.
- In a large bowl, combine the sliced rhubarb, strawberries, sugar substitute, vanilla extract, psyllium husk powder, and salt. Mix well.
- Fill the prepared crust with the strawberry-rhubarb filling and dot with butter.
- Roll out the second dough portion and cover the pie. Cut 5-6 slits in the top for venting.
- Bake at 350°F for 35-40 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Let it cool before slicing.
Notes
- If using frozen fruit, thaw and drain excess moisture before adding it to the pie.
- Chill the dough for easier handling and a flakier crust.
- For a nut-free option, use sunflower seed flour instead of almond flour.
- Allow the pie to cool completely to set the filling properly before slicing.
