2 tbsp powdered erythritol

Pinch of salt
For the lime curd:
-
3 egg yolks

Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a tart or pizza pan with parchment paper.
-
Mix almond flour, melted butter, erythritol, and salt in a bowl. Press the mixture into the pan.
-
Bake crust for 10–12 minutes until lightly golden. Cool fully.
-
In a saucepan, whisk egg yolks, sweetener, zest, and juice over low heat until it thickens (5–8 mins).
-
Remove from heat, stir in butter chunks until smooth. Optional: strain to remove lumps.
-
Let curd cool slightly, then spread on crust. Chill at least 1 hour.
-
Add toppings before serving if using.
Notes
-
Use powdered sweetener for smooth texture.
-
Don’t spread curd on warm crust—it’ll slide off.
-
Let the whole thing chill to help it set.
-
Can swap lime for lemon or orange juice.
-
Stores well in fridge for up to 5 days.
