INGREDIENTS
1/4 cup Almond Flour (20g)
1 tsp Coconut Oil (5g)
2 Egg Yolks
6 Egg Whites
1/3 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt (80g)
2 Tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
2 Tbsp Fresh Orange Juice
2 Tbsp Granulated Erythritol (15g)
Pinch Cream of Tartar
1 tsp Citrus Zest (Lemon and Orange)
Pinch Salt
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 350°F.
Mix the almond flour with melted coconut oil and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Press the mixture firmly into the base of a mini pie pan to form a thin crust. Bake the crust for about 8-10 minutes until lightly golden. Remove and allow to cool.
In a separate saucepan, combine the egg yolks, fresh lemon juice, fresh orange juice, granulated erythritol, and citrus zest. Whisk continuously over low heat until the mixture begins to thicken into a curd-like consistency. Remove from heat and gently fold in the nonfat Greek yogurt. Allow the citrus filling to cool slightly.
For the meringue, in a clean bowl, beat the egg whites with a pinch of cream of tartar until stiff peaks form.
Spread the cooled citrus filling evenly over the baked crust. Top with the whipped meringue, creating soft peaks across the surface.
Place the assembled pie back into the oven under a broiler for 1-2 minutes to lightly toast the meringue. Keep a close watch to avoid burning.
Remove from the oven, let cool for a few minutes, and serve your fresh citrus meringue pie at room temperature.
