Equipment

  • 1 11" Tart Pan

Ingredients

Gluten Free Keto Chocolate Tart Shell

  • 1 ¼ cup Superfine Almond Flour
  • ½ cup Chocolate Whey Protein Powder
  • ¼ cup Cocoa Powder
  • 2 tablespoon Coconut Flour
  • ½ cup Salted Butter room temperature
  • ½ cup Allulose ⅓ cup if using erythitol blend
  • 1 Large Egg
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract

Sugar Free Milk Chocolate Ganache

  • 9 oz Lily’s Milk Chocolate Chips
  • ¾ cup plus 2 tablespoon Heavy Cream
  • 2 tablespoon Butter
  • 2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract

Sugar Free Raspberry Curd:

  • 300 g Frozen Raspberries Thawed
  • cup Allulose ½ cup if using Erythritol blend
  • 4 Large Egg Yolks
  • 1 Large Egg
  • 1 teaspoon Citric Acid
  • 4 tablespoon Salted Butter Chilled and cut into pieces
  • Pinch Salt

Assembly

  • Fresh Raspberries Mint Leaves, and/or Sugar Free Chocolate, as desired.

Instructions

Make The Keto Chocolate Tart Dough:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, protein powder, cocoa powder, and coconut flour, set aside.
  • In stand mixer - or in a large bowl if using an electric mixer - cream butter and allulose until fluffy.
  • Add the egg and vanilla, beat until everything is fully incorporated and smooth.
  • Slowly add the dry ingredients mix to the mixer bowl, and carefully mix until well incorporated and smooth.
  • Wrap dough with plastic wrap, chill for 1 hour.

Bake the Tart Shell:

  • Preheat oven to 350 F; Spray an 11" round tart pan (with removable bottom) with cooking spray.
  • Use a bit of extra chocolate protein powder to lightly dust your work surface, roll the chilled dough out to about 12" in diameter, and press it into the tart pan.
  • (I like to roll it out on parchment paper and just invert it on the pan.)
  • Press the dough into the bottom edge and into the side scallops of the pan, aiming for an even thickness throughout.
  • Use a sharp knife to trim the top edge of the crust, discard leftovers.
  • Use a fork to prick the bottom all over; bake at for 15-18 minutes, until lightly golden brown.
  • Remove from oven and allow to cool to room temperature.

Make the Keto Chocolate Ganache Filling:

  • Place sugar-free chocolate chips into a glass mixing bowl, and put aside.
  • In a small saucepan, combine heavy whipping cream and butter. Heat to JUST to a simmer over medium heat, remove from heat.
  • Stir in vanilla extract, then pour hot cream mixture into bowl of chocolate chips. Let sit for 3-5 minutes.
  • Starting in the middle of the bowl, slowly start stirring the chocolate and cream until all of the chocolate is melted and the cream has disappeared into it – it should be smooth.
  • Spoon or pipe ganache into the cooled keto chocolate tart shell, cover with plastic wrap.
  • Chill filled shell in the fridge for at least an hour or so, until the filling is set.

Make the Keto Raspberry Curd:

  • In a small food processor, blitz raspberries to liquify.
  • Press raspberry pulp through a wire strainer and into a small pot, discarding the solids (seeds) left behind.
  • In a separate small bowl, whisk together egg yolks, large egg, and allulose until well combined. Add to the raspberry pulp - along with the citric acid - whisk until well combined.
  • Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until mixture thickens.
  • It should be able to coat the back of a spoon and retain a clear trail when a finger is dragged across the back of the spoon. Ideally, you want the mixture to reach 165F - I use a surface thermometer for this.
  • You’ll know it’s ready when the bubbles / foam incorporate into the curd.
  • Once mixture is thick / hot enough, transfer to a bowl. Add the pieces of butter, whisking until well incorporated.
  • Once all of the butter has melted in and been fully incorporated into the curd, season with a pinch or so of salt, to taste.
  • Spread warm raspberry curd over the set sugar free chocolate ganache, smoothing with the back of a spoon.
  • Cover and chill for at least 4 hours.

Serving

  • Once it has chilled for 4 hours or more, remove the plastic wrap. Use a warm offset spatula to re-smooth the top of the raspberry curd, if desired. (I run it under hot water, then wipe with a clean kitchen towel).
  • Garnish as desired, slice and serve.

Notes

Tart shell can be made up to a week ahead of time and kept in an airtight container in the fridge until you’re ready to use them. For longer storage, it can be frozen - just allow it to thaw fully before use.
Once filled, tart should be eaten within a few days.
More than 24 grams of carbs per serving come from sugar alcohols, and 9 grams come from fiber, for a total of 33 grams of deductible carbs.
That leaves each serving at a max of 7 grams net carbs - assuming you're using a low carb protein powder.
In reality - with the protein powder I used - it's a couple net carbs lower per serving.
