Show some love

Keto Churro Cream Pie is the best of two delicious worlds, a soft blanket of smooth vanilla decadence and the sweet memory-inducing flavour of cinnamon-sugar churros. This all-low-carb snack is a keto dream with buttery flatbread and rich, creamy feta cheese. With no added sugar or carbs, these taste just like you are walking down the historic streets of Mexico munching on Cocotelli’s other-world famous churros! It’s a tasty way to indulge your sweet tooth while sticking with your keto lifestyle. It’s pretty, too, so I also love it for family dinner or a weekend dessert feast.

The crust is crispy and the filling smooth to make this a bakery style treat at home! Unlike classic pies that will send your sugar levels through the roof, this treat is made with keto-approved sweeteners such as erythritol or monk fruit, which means you can enjoy it guilt free. It only needs a few ingredients and is incredibly easy to prepare too! You don’t have to be a keto newcomer or veteran in order for this recipe to become an instant classic. Keto Churro Cream Pie shows you can indulge in a richly delicious treat without sacrificing your health.

Notes

  • You might want to use powdered sweetener for a smoother filling.
  • Allow the crust to cool completely before topping with cream.
  • I like to chill it in the fridge overnight if I have time for a firmer bite.
  • Just throw on a pinch of nutmeg, if you want even more warmth.
  • Don't forget to line the pie pan with parchment paper for easy removal.
