Ingredients
Crust:
- 2 cups almond flour
- 2 tbsp. monk fruit sweetener
- 1 tsp. dried lemon zest
- 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 3 tbsp. softened coconut oil
- 1 egg
Filling:
- 2 cups blueberries, fresh or frozen
- 1 tbsp. lemon juice
- 1 tbsp. honey
- 1 tbsp.tapioca flour + 1 tbsp. water
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375F. Prepare 2 baking sheets by lining them with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, mix all of the pie crust ingredients together. Cover and place in the refrigerator while you prepare the blueberry filling.
- Combine the blueberries, lemon juice, and honey in a small stovetop pot. Cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes.
- Stir the tapioca flour with the water. Add to the blueberry mixture, remove from the heat, stir well, and set aside.
- Divide the chilled pie crust dough into 16 even pieces. Set aside one section to use as the crumb topping.
- Roll the 15 remaining sections of dough into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets and flatten them out with a rolling pin or your hands until they’re about 1/4″ thick.
- Pre-bake the pie crusts for about 7 minutes, or until slightly golden brown.
- Add about 1 tablespoon of blueberry filling to the center of each of the crusts. Crumble the remaining section of dough over the 15 mini pies.
- Bake for another 5 minutes and serve warm!
- Optional: drizzle melted coconut butter over each of the pies with a sprinkle of dried lemon zest.
