Low-Carb Pork & Egg PiePin itFollow us 148.4k

If you've been missing meat pie, you have to give this recipe a try. Unlike many other low-carb pie crusts made with almond flour, this one has no sweet aftertaste and tastes amazing.

Just perfect to fill with some meat, vegetables, eggs, cheese or any of your favourite filling. If you don't eat dairy, just skip the cheese and use more eggs or add mushrooms and vegetables such as asparagus, kale or broccoli. The options are endless!

How to Make Keto Pork Pie

To make this low-carb pork pie, you'll need our Savory Keto Pie Crust. To make it, you can either use 8 mini tart pans like these, or a regular 9-inch tart pan. In either case, pans with removable bottoms work best for this recipe. I also used ceramic baking beans to weight the dough down.

Once the crust is baked, you will just add the egg-pork & bacon filling and bake until set.

I changed the way I ate in 2011, when I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s, an autoimmune disease that affects the thyroid. I had no energy, and I found it more and more difficult to maintain a healthy weight.

That’s when I decided to quit sugar, grains, and processed foods, and to start following a whole-foods-based ketogenic approach to food.
