Keto Blackberry Pie Filling Food

SKINNY MIXED BERRY PIE

Steps:

• Add the frozen berries, sweetener, lemon juice, zest and cinnamon to a pan. Cook on a medium heat for about 7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Stir through the ground chia. Heat for 2 minutes then remove from the heat and allow to cool to thicken for about 30 minutes. Taste and adjust the sweetness to taste and add more chia if you like it thicker.
• Meanwhile make the dough. Melt the mozzarella in the microwave on high for 60 seconds, stir with a rubber spatula and heat for another 30 seconds. Add the almond flour and egg. Mix. You may need to get your hands involved here!
• Roll out the dough between 2 sheets of parchment paper and place in fridge for 20 - 30 minutes to chill. Then cut into strips on a diagonal using a pizza cutter or sharp knife about 1 cm in thickness.
• To make the lattice, lay the bottom strips on top of the berries then starting at one side add a strip perpendicular and just lift the bottom ones up and under. Trim at the edges, then brush with a little egg white and sprinkle with low carb sweetener.
• Preheat the oven to 400F / 200C conventional / 180 fan.
• Bake for 15 - 25 minutes until golden on top.

BLACKBERRY PIE

Steps:

• Toss together the berries, granulated sugar, vanilla and lemon zest and juice in a large bowl. Let stand at room temperature for 20 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, unroll one pie crust and press it into a 9-inch pie plate. Roll out the other crust on a floured cutting board. Using a 2-inch round biscuit cutter, cut the entire crust into rounds, rerolling until all the dough is used (about 28 rounds).
• Sprinkle the cornstarch over the berry mixture and toss to combine. Pour the berry mixture into the crust and spread into an even layer. Dot the top with the butter pieces. Brush the border of the dough lightly with the egg wash. Place the rounds around the border of the pie plate, overlapping them slightly and using the egg wash as an adhesive when necessary. There will be empty space in the center. Crimp the edge of the pie. Brush the entire crust with the egg wash and sprinkle with the turbinado sugar.
• Put the pie plate on a baking sheet and bake until the center is set and the crust is golden brown, 45 to 50 minutes. Put on a wire rack to cool completely. Serve at room temperature.
