Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups Blanched almond flour
  • 3 tablespoons Coconut flour
  • 3.7 oz Softened butter
  • 1/4 cup Erythritol or powdered monk fruit sweetener
  • sea salt Pinch

PISTACHIO KUNAFA FILLING

  • 1 cup Unsalted pistachios (soaked in hot water 30 min, drained, peeled)
  • 1/2 tsp Matcha powder
  • 1/4 cup Full-fat canned coconut milk
  • 3 tablespoons Powdered monk fruit or erythritol sweetener
  • 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
  • 1 cup Unsweetened shredded coconut (roasted in a dry pan until golden)
  • sea salt Pinch

DAIRY-FREE CHOCOLATE GANACHE TOPPING

  • 1/2 cup Canned coconut milk
  • 3.5 oz Sugar-free dark chocolate (or 70%+ chocolate), chopped

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a mixing bowl, simply combine the almond flour, coconut flour, sweetener, and a pinch of salt.
  • Add in the softened butter and mix well until a consistent dough forms.
  • Press this dough evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a greased 9-inch pie pan.
  • Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until it turns lightly golden. Allow it to cool completely before you add the delicious filling.
  • In a dry skillet over medium heat, gently roast the shredded coconut until it's golden and smells wonderful. Set it aside to cool.
  • Using a food processor, blend the soaked pistachios until they become a thick, creamy paste.
  • Now, add the matcha powder, coconut milk, sweetener, coconut oil, and salt. Continue to blend until the mixture is beautifully smooth.
  • Gently fold in the roasted coconut flakes. This adds a lovely texture to your filling.
  • Spread this flavorful pistachio mixture evenly into your cooled pie crust.
  • In a small saucepan, gently heat the coconut milk until it just begins to simmer.
  • Pour the warm coconut milk over the chopped chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Let it sit for about 1 minute to melt, then stir until it's perfectly smooth and glossy.
  • Allow the ganache to cool slightly, then carefully pour it over the pistachio filling, smoothing it out with a spatula.
