Ingredients

Crust

1 1/2 cups almond flour 168g
6 tbsp powdered monkfruit sweetener 60g
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 cup salted butter 60g

Pie Filling

1 x 8oz brick of softened cream cheese 250g
1/2 cup natural peanut butter 120g
1 tsp vanilla extract 5ml
1 cup cold heavy cream 250ml
1 cup powdered monkfruit sweetener 160g

Optional Mix-Ins & Toppings

1 1/2 Russel Stover Caramel Bars chopped
1/4 cup chopped peanuts 30g
Keto Caramel Sauce

Instructions

Add the almond flour, monkfruit sweetener and cinnamon in a 9-inch pie pan. Whisk together.
Add the butter to the pan as well and stir well until a crumbly dough forms.
Use your hands to evenly press the dough into the bottom of the pie pan and part-way up the sides then set the pan aside.
In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until light and fluffy, add the peanut butter and vanilla extract and beat again until combined.
In another separate bowl, beat the heavy cream until it starts to thicken. Add the powdered monkfruit sweetener and continue to beat until it has the consistency of cool whip (can form soft peaks).
Add the whipped cream to the cream cheese mixture and beat everything on low-speed until well combined.
Fold in a tablespoon or two of chopped peanuts as well as 1 whole chopped russel stover's caramel chocolate bar to the mixture (optional).
Then use a spatula to pour the filling on top of your prepared pie crust. Smooth out the top.
Top with remaining chopped peanuts and Russel Stover's caramel chocolate bar.
Refrigerate overnight or at LEAST 4 hours before slicing and serving.
Meanwhile you can prepare my Easy Keto Caramel Sauce recipe as written (optional). Use this to top the entire pie or slices as you serve. Enjoy your Keto Snicker's Pie!

Notes

Ingredients In Keto Snickers Pie

Almond Flour - This acts as our pie crust. When combined with butter, sweetener and cinnamon, it's flavour and texture closely resemble that of graham cracker crumbs!
Powdered Monkfruit Sweetener - My absolute favourite keto sweetener. Powdered is essential here because it blends into the filling and crust without leaving any grainy texture.
Cinnamon - A pinch of this in our crust helps give it that signature "graham cracker" flavour.
Salted Butter - I use salted butter to skip a step but feel free to use regular butter and just add 1/4 tsp salt to the crust.
Cream Cheese - This helps thicken our filling and add flavour.
Natural Chunky Peanut Butter - This gives a hint of peanut butter flavour to our filling without being overwhelming. Chunky is my favourite because of the additional textures it adds but smooth will also do just fine!
Vanilla Extract - Pure or artificial work in this recipe!
Heavy Cream - This is beaten to make whipped cream which gives a beautiful light and fluffy texture to our filling while of course adding delicious richness and flavour!
Russel Stover Chocolate Caramel Bars - These are a great snicker's alternative that you can use in the filling and to top your keto pie but you are welcome to use any low carb chocolate bar you prefer.
Peanuts - We add these to provide some extra crunch to our pie!
Keto Caramel Sauce - This is completely optional but as an extra touch, I like to make my keto caramel sauce recipe and drizzle a little over each slice when serving. It looks beautiful and tastes great!

Tips For Making Keto Snickers Pie

For best results, make sure your cream cheese is at room temperature before making this recipe.
Make sure your whipped cream is COLD. Use a chilled bowl to ensure it whips up well.
Use a powdered sweetener NOT granulated. A Powdered Monkfruit Sweetener is by far my favourite.
Use chunky peanut butter for a more "textured" pie.
Don't like peanut butter? It can be left out or swapped for almond or hazelnut butter.
You can also switch up the crust. Hazelnut flour is another favourite of mine.
Make sure to chill this pie for AT LEAST 5 hours if not overnight. If you are in a big hurry, you can set it in the freezer for ~2 hours but I find the fridge does a better job at chilling it through.
Store this pie covered and chilled in the fridge for up to 1 week.
OR freeze slices in an airtight container. Once frozen, place a piece of wax paper on top of the slices to help prevent freezer burn.
