Ingredients

Servings

• 1 can Coconut Milk
• 3 large Eggs
• ¹⁄₂ cup Erythritol
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• ¹⁄₄ teaspoon Salt
• ¹⁄₄ cup Coconut Flour
• ¹⁄₂ teaspoon Baking Powder
• ¹⁄₄ cup Unsweetened Shredded Coconut
• ¹⁄₈ pinch Cream of Tartar
• 3 large Egg Whites
• ¹⁄₂ cup Erythritol
• ¹⁄₂ teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• ¹⁄₄ teaspoon Xanthan Gum

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. In a blender, combine the coconut milk, eggs, erythritol, vanilla extract, and salt. Blend until smooth.
3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the coconut flour and baking powder. Gradually add the blended mixture to the dry ingredients, whisking until well combined. Stir in the unsweetened shredded coconut.
4. Pour the mixture into a greased pie dish and bake for 40 minutes, or until set and golden.
5. Meanwhile, prepare the sugar-free meringue. In a clean mixing bowl, beat the egg whites and cream of tartar until foamy. Gradually add the erythritol, vanilla extract, and xanthan gum, and continue beating until stiff peaks form.
6. Once the pie is done baking, remove it from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes.
7. Increase the oven temperature to 400°F (200°C).
8. Spread the meringue over the pie, making sure to seal the edges. Bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the meringue is lightly browned.
9. Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for 2 hours.
10. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving. Enjoy!
