Keto/Low Carb Dutch "Apple" pie

#nutfree #coconutflour
It's apple picking season and everyone is making apple crisp and pies. So I wanted to make my favorite kind Dutch apple pie keto. And I succeeded in making a delicious Keto Dutch "Apple" Pie using chayote squash. It has a flaky pie crust and a crunchy crumble with a sweet caramel filling. Top it with some keto ice cream and caramel sauce, recipe links below!
Ingredients, blog link and macros below!!!!
I created a patreon account. I have many ideas for the future of this channel and maybe even creating my own keto line of desserts at some point. I'm going to be posting some inspirational stuff over there along with more information about my life, past, present and future. I'm excited to take this extra step and do some extra content for supporters. Some behind the scenes of my recipe testing successes and fails alike. Maybe even some merch down the line!

    Bummed about not going apple picking this year, so decided to make my favorite apple pie low carb. Took some testing to get the filling right but it turned out awesome! Try it with some keto no churn ice cream, it will be next level! kzread.info/dash/bejne/eG14ysR_Z5uxmc4.html

    Hi Alicia! This pie is really delicious especially with your Caramel sauce! One thing I did that really made it taste more of apple is that I brewed some “TWINNINGS APPLE SPICE TEA” and used it with the butter instead of plain water! By the way, I’m 69 yrs young and have been cooking forever! I don’t share my secrets with just anyone! My husband thanks you for this Keto Apple Pie cause he’s a Diabetic! We’ve been doing Keto for 3 1/2 yrs now & this is something he treasures since Apples for him are a no no all the way around! Thanks for all your hard work to make our lives a lot sweeter👏❤️😋😋😋

    I’m on a keto upgrade recipe kick… trying each recipe one by one. I have never found a recipe creator with literally hit after hit. I can’t wait until you have a cookbook. Your breads are amazing. Now I’m moving onto desserts. So I made this crust and crumble, I have 50 lbs of blueberries in my freezer so I used those as the filling mixed with some monk fruit and xanthum instead of squash, I find that berries in moderation don’t kick me out of ketosis at all, after being consistently on keto for a while. So this crust and crumble is literally the best I’ve ever tried on keto. I’ve been baking keto for so long, and was an avid baker before that so I have very high expectations of baked goods. I’m more than capable of enjoying keto foods that don’t taste like the original. But this recipe is spot on! The crust cooked golden, it was flakey and exactly like the texture and feel of a pie crust. The crumble actually got crunchy and again, texture and mouthfeel was spot on. I have never enjoyed a keto dessert that actually satisfied all aspects of what a dessert should do before trying this. My ridiculously picky husband didn’t like the taste of the whey protein in it, oddly enough, that taste went away after sitting in the fridge over night. I will try this recipe again with egg white protein powder for him, but that’s just because he’s picky. This crust opens up so many possibilities. This will be my go to pie recipe forever. I have so few keto forever recipes, but this makes it on that list with flying colors. I’ve been dying to have a quiche with a real crust. And a chicken pot pie. Not to mention all the sweet pie possibilities. I don’t know how you do it, but please don’t stop. I love every recipe I’ve tried, and I’m so excited to see what you come up with in the future!

The kind she grew had little stickers or something on them so the skin was always peeled and tossed. There's only two stores where I live that have them so I better grow some or just eat apple pie when I can find them. Thanks for the great recipes. They really help my sweet tooth.

But I also bought zucchini for zucchini bread. I think I'll make the "apple" filling and freeze portions for mini pies or crumbles later (using jumbo muffin tin). I also have red and green apple flavorings to try. I thought that you were going to make stovetop caramel to add in but this is certainly an easier method.

    I made this last night. I was really impressed with the texture of the “apples”. I think I cut mine slightly thinner, but they were perfect with just a slight bite. However, I decided to add apple tea as suggested by another recipe developer and it was a very bad decision. The crust also came out really soggy, not sure what went wrong there. My crumb topping also came out very wet and I was careful to follow the instructions as you commented about this exact thing, next time I will try 1/4 c of butter and adding more if needed. The crust was really easy to make, I like the idea of grating the butter. I can definitely see how it could be a really good “apple” pie, so will try again without the tea and some slight adaptions. Thank you so much for all the time you spend to create and share these recipes with us. Will report back after “apple” pie take 2.

On another note, I let the pie rest longer and that helped prevent the soggy crust and I refrained from adding extra ingredients the last two times, the apple mixture is to die for. This crust and crumble recipe is probably not for me, but I have loved all of your other recipes. Thanks AGAIN, and I hope you have a fantastic Christmas.

    Hey Alicia just wanted to ask if you’ve ever tried jícama it has a slight Apple/pear taste and I plan on using it to make an “Apple “ pie. I’ve tried the chayote but I didn’t like it maybe because I cut it up into small cubes and didn’t cook long enough. Have you done a more recent Apple pie video?

    I thought about peeling them after I put the video out. Well I sautee it forever to get it softer so baking would do the same but may dry it out, which I don't know if that's a good thing or not. Don't know if you are talking in general terms or for this particular recipe.

    Hi there, Alisha❣️ Do you like using zucchini as an apple substitute? I've tried using the chayote squash before, but I really didn't like it much because it takes FOREVER to get it even a little bit soft. But I really like the way zucchini takes on the apple taste. Do you think I could swap the cooked chayote for raw zucchini? Or sautee it a bit? I'm just afraid it might turn to too mushy if I cook it first. Thanks so much❣️

  • @KetoUpgrade

    They both cut and come out relatively easy. This crust is lower carb and flakier though. The other one is easier cause everything just goes in a food processor. I don't remember the taste of the other one but I'm guessing this one tastes more buttery because the other one has an egg and cream cheese in it also.

  • @KetoUpgrade

    @KetoUpgrade

    Жыл бұрын

    That would probably be good. The only difference I have found is in recipes with minimal ingredients like a pie crust, if you look at the ingredients on keto chow they may have some gums in it and it could be a little too much. Just found that out in my sponge cake recipe, switching to chocolate protein instead of unflavored it got really thick and gelatinous. Just looked up the packet and the second ingredient is acacia gum and the 5th is xanthan gum. One packet is 45 g so maybe try the whole packet and cut out the gelatin from the recipe? That's my best advise without trying it myself.

    Could you explain what job the oat fibre is actually doing for your pastry, please? Only, I'm on the protocol for medical reasons. Primarily it stops my brain wanting to vacate the premises, but also because I'm allergic to the whole cereal family, so I'm gutted every time I see someone mention oat/wheat products in a 'keto' recipe, which then means I simply can't use it. If I know what job it's doing, I'll know how to swap it out.
