Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (softened)
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine pink Himalayan salt
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup diced celery
  • 1/2 cup diced onion
  • 1 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 4 ounces cream cheese (softened)
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon celery seed
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum
  • 2 cups shredded cooked chicken
  • 1 cup frozen peas and carrots

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and spray a 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray.
  2. For the crust: In a large bowl, mix together the almond flour, 6 tablespoons of softened butter, egg, and salt. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese.
  3. Divide dough in half and roll each half between two pieces of parchment paper into a circle. Chill for 5-10 minutes.
  4. Place one sheet of dough into the pie plate and bake for 6-8 minutes. Remove from oven.
  5. While the crust bakes, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Sauté celery and onion for 5 minutes until softened. Add chicken broth, cream cheese, and heavy cream, whisking until smooth. Stir in garlic powder, poultry seasoning, celery seed, salt, and pepper.
  6. Reduce heat to low, sprinkle in xanthan gum, and whisk quickly until the mixture thickens to your desired consistency.
  7. Stir in shredded chicken and frozen peas and carrots.
  8. Pour the filling into the bottom pie crust, top with the remaining crust, and press the edges together.

Notes

- To ensure a truly flaky crust, do not overmix the dough. Gently combine until just incorporated to prevent it from becoming tough.
- If your filling seems too thin, gradually add a bit more xanthan gum, whisking continuously, until it reaches your desired consistency. Be careful not to add too much at once, as it thickens quickly.
- For food safety, ensure the chicken used in the keto chicken pot pie is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) before shredding and adding to the filling.
