If you need to bring a dessert to the many patriotic gatherings this Summer, this American Flag pie is for you. Just like my keto berry trifle and berry Bundt cake, this treat adorns the red, white and blue.
This keto pie starts with a low carb flaky pie crust. It’s a keto pie crust that you can roll out which is prefect for punching out stars and stripes to decorate with. The filling is composed of four different types of low sugar berries – raspberries, strawberries, blackberries and blueberries. The blueberries and black berries are separated from the red berries to symbolize the American Flag. And pieces of keto pie crust are cut into stars and stripes.
Besides being a picture perfect creation, this keto pie is truly delicious and has been enjoy by many – even those who don’t follow a keto lifestyle.

Keto Berry Pie Directions
-
Make keto pie dough
To a food processer, add almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum and salt. Pulse to combine. Add chilled cubed butter and cream cheese. Pulse until coarse crumbles form. Add egg and vinegar. Pulse until combined and a dough ball forms. Separate into two ball (make one ball slightly larger for the bottom crust)
Quick Tip
If you don't have a food processor, you can use a blender or a pastry blender. Cutting the butter into the dough with two forks works in a pinch. -
Roll out pie crust
Place the larger dough ball in between two sheets of parchment paper. Roll out, using a rolling pin, in all directions forming a circle a few inches larger in diameter compared to the pie plate. Dough should around 1/8-1/4 inch thick. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. Repeat with top crust.
-
Thick it good
Make the thicker for the filling by adding sugar free sweetener, ground chia seeds and arrowroot powder to a small bowl. Mix to combine.
Quick Tip
See below for recommendations on alternative thickeners. -
Make 'blue' berry mixture
In a medium bowl, combine blueberries, blackberries and 2 1/2 tablespoons of the sweetener thickener mixture. Stir in 1 teaspoon lemon juice. Refrigerate while you work on the "red" berry mixture.
-
Make "red" berry mixture
In a large bowl, combine raspberries, strawberries, remaining sweetener thickener mixture, and lemon juice. Stir to combine and refrigerate while inserting the bottom layer pie crust.
-
Lay down the bottom crust
Remove the top layer of parchment paper to the bottom pie crust. Place a pie plate upside down on top of the pie crust. Slide your hand underneath the pie crust and flip. Remove the parchment paper and press the dough into the pie pan.
-
Indivisible
Fold a piece of aluminum foil until it fits the diameter of 1/3 of the pie and is about 2 inches wide. Place at the 1/3 mark. Pour the 'blue' berry mixture into the left side (smaller) of the foil. Pour the 'red' berry mixture into the right side. Be careful not to pour in any juices as that will make your pie filling to soupy. Remove the foil.
-
Stars and stripes
Take the top pie crust out of the refrigerator and remove the top layer of parchment paper. Using a cookie cutter and knife, punch out star shapes and cut out wavy flag stripes. Place on top of pie crust. Crimp around the edges with a fork.
-
Bake
Bake the pie at 350 degrees for around 30 minutes. Remove from the oven to cool at room temperature for 2-3 hours before transferring the the refrigerator to cool further if not serving right away.
Quick Tip
Brush top crust with an egg wash (1 egg + 1 tablespoon water) if desired for a glossy appearance to the top crust.
