  • 2 tbsp powdered sugar substitute Erythritol or monk fruit blends work well.
For the filling
  • 1 package cream cheese (8 oz) Let it soften at room temperature for best texture.
  • 0.5 cups powdered sugar substitute Taste as you go for desired sweetness.

Filling

  2. Gradually add the remaining powdered sugar substitute, fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract.
  3. Continue beating the mixture until it becomes fluffy and well combined.
  4. Gently fold the sugar-free whipped topping into the mixture until smooth.
Assembly
  1. Pour the lemon filling into the chilled almond flour crust, spreading it out evenly.
  2. Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until fully set and firm.
  3. Serve the pie chilled, optionally garnishing with extra whipped topping and lemon zest.
