With a buttery, flaky almond flour shortcrust pastry and a low carb mincemeat filling, these Keto mince pies are the essence of a proper low carb Christmas! My whole family LOVES mince pies. Especially my daughter goes crazy for them.
The Secret Ingredient that makes my Low Carb Christmas Mince Pies VERY Low Carb. Mincemeat is obviously the key element of mince pies. But many low-carb recipes for mincemeat involve a lot of berries and nuts, which means… extra carbs.
Low Carb Christmas Mince Pies. A festive tradition now perfectly healthyfied and ketofied. 3g net carbs. I have to admit that I’ve never been a fan of mincemeat. In fact, that’s an understatement, because I actually can’t stand it.
Just before serving, garnish the pies with a variety of the topping ingredients: wedge of fresh fig and a walnut: 1 tsp apple or pear, plus a cherry: a few flaked toasted almonds with orange zest, or any combination you like – use your imagination! For a citrus zing, try adding the grated zest of an orange or lemon to the mincemeat.
