Do you have any tips for making this keto chocolate pie crust?
The crust for this keto peanut butter pie has only 5 ingredients and is quick and easy to make. But the rich chocolate flavor and the texture, which is reminiscent of a chocolate graham cracker crust, make this the ideal crust for this peanut butter pie. Here are some helpful tips to ensure your crust comes out beautifully. I would encourage you to sift your cocoa powder so you won’t have any lumps of chocolate in your mix. Next, use either your hands or the bottom of a measuring cup to press the mixture firmly into the pie plate. And finally, after you bake the crust, pop it in the freezer to chill while you make the delicious filling!
Let’s talk about the filling for this awesome keto peanut butter pie!
Peanut butter is the star of the show for this recipe! There are many sugar free keto peanut butters you can choose from. Just remember to carefully check the nutrition label on your peanut butter jar. I like to see as few ingredients as possible in my peanut butter. Those containing only peanuts are always good. Some contain a little salt, which is also fine. The second most important ingredient for this recipe is the keto powdered sugar. I used Swerve powdered sugar. Swerve is made from all-natural ingredients. It has no calories, doesn’t raise your blood sugar, has zero net carbs, and is delicious!

It is delicious. I melted some extra peanut butter and drizzled over the top. Definitely a keeper. Thank you for sharing your recipe.
