Ingredients

SHORTBREAD CRUST:

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1/4 cup confectioners erythritol
  • 1 serving Lemon Meringue Keto Chow or Vanilla Keto Chow
  • 1/4 cup fine almond flour

LEMON FILLING:

  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 3 eggs room temperature
  • 1/2 cup confectioners erythritol
  • 1 serving Lemon Meringue Keto Chow (or 1 scoop)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

FOR THE CRUST:

  • Mix ingredients together very well. With your hands press dough evenly into an 8x8 dish lined with parchment paper.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. It will brown but still jiggle a little in the middle.
  • Let cool for 5-10 minutes or until it no longer jiggles. 

FILLING:

  • While the crust cools mix together the filling ingredients until it's nice and smooth.
  • Add lemon filling on top of the baked shortbread crust and put in a 350 degree oven for 40 minutes. Cool for 20 minutes and put in the fridge for a least 2 hours.
  • You can sprinkle confectioners sugar on top if you wish.
