Equipment
- Mixing bowls
- Skillet
- 9-inch pie dish or muffin tin
- Wooden spoon or spatula
- Oven
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour (or ¾ cup coconut flour)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella (for crust)
- 2 large eggs (1 for crust, 1 for filling)
- 1 lb ground beef, chicken, or pork
- 1 cup shredded cheddar or mozzarella (for filling)
- ½ cup chopped mushrooms or spinach (optional)
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- ½ tsp oregano
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional garnish: parsley or chives
Instructions
- Prepare crust: Mix almond flour, mozzarella, and 1 beaten egg. Press into greased pie dish. Pre-bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10 minutes.
- Cook filling: Brown meat in skillet. Drain fat. Add mushrooms/spinach if desired. Season with garlic, onion, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper.
- Add cheese: Stir in 1 cup shredded cheese.
- Assemble pie: Spoon filling into crust. Sprinkle with ½ cup cheese on top.
- Bake: Return to oven for 20–25 minutes until golden and bubbly.
- Cool and serve: Rest 5 minutes before slicing. Garnish with parsley or chives.
Notes
- Tip: Almond flour yields a sturdier crust; coconut flour creates a lighter texture.
- Make-ahead: Assemble crust and filling separately, refrigerate, and bake fresh.
- Variations: Try Tex-Mex seasoning, breakfast-style with bacon and eggs, or vegetarian with mushrooms and spinach.
- Serving idea: Pair with a crisp salad or roasted vegetables for a balanced keto meal.
