Chocolate Pudding Pie w/Mock Graham Cracker Crust
Chocolate Pudding Pie
Mock Graham Cracker Crust servings 8 @ 1 carb per serving, 1.5 for the chocolate version. 1/4 cup butter, softened 1/2 t. splenda quick pack (2 carb) 2 T. granular erythritol 1 egg (1 carb) 1/2 teaspoon vanilla 1/2 cup unblanched almond flour (2 carbs) 3 T. wheat protein isolate 5000 (1 carb) 1 T. resistant wheat starch (1 carb) 1 T. wheat bran (1 carb) 1/2 teaspoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon baking soda In a medium bowl, mix together the butter, egg, Sweetzfree and vanilla till well combined. Combine dry ingredients and add to butter mixture; beat until combined and smooth. Scoop a tablespoon of dough and place on greased or parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 15 – 20 minutes or until golden brown. Note: I made 6 cookies as equal as I could and browned them to be as crunchy as I could to help with the next step. 6 cookies makes about 1 3/4 c. of crumbs. In a small mixing bowl combined 1/4 c. of melted butter with the crumbs then press mixture firmly against bottom and side of pie plate. Bake in a 350 oven 10 to 12 min.then set aside to cool. Variation: To make a chocolate flavor crust add the following to the above recipe. 1 oz. (1 square)unsweetened bakers chocolate (finely grated) 1/8 t. splenda quick pack add these ingredients as is to the butter mixture above before combining with the dry ingredients. Chocolate Pudding Filling servings 8 @ 1.75 carb per serving 1/4 cup granular erythritol 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (4 carb) 2 T. not/Sugar pinch of salt 2 cups chocolate almond breeze (4 carb) 1 large egg (1 carb) 4 squares lindt 85% Cocoa (5 carb)(you could sub unsweetened chocolate for this + some sweetener for this but the carbs would be the same) 1 Whisk together the erythritol, cocoa powder, not/Sugar, and salt in a heavy 2-quart saucepan. 2 Gradually whisk in the Almond Breeze and egg. 3 Bring to a boil, whisking constantly, and boil, whisking, until pudding is thick, about 3 to 5 minutes. 4 Whisk in the Lindt chocolate until they are melted and the mixture is smooth. 5 Remove from heat. 6 Pour the pudding into the cooled pie shell. 7 Refrigerate, covered, until cold, at least 2 hours. ![]() ![]() |

I would have topped the entire pie with whipped cream but I kept it non-dairy so I could share it with my DW. That didn't keep me from putting it on my piece though.
![]() For the record my DW and I both like this pie!![]() |

I temporarily forgot of your wife's lactose intolerance, Kevin. You are very sweet to make things you can both enjoy. And, if you both like this, I'm sure we will too. Thanks.
BTW, DH is beginning to take baby steps into trying some LC baked goods. He's always been pretty good trying the sweets, but he's tried some rolls and bread of late - he's eaten it all and not complained of odd tastes so I really want to thank you for all the work you put into the breads. |

Kevin--
That "pat in the pan" carbq- crust works really well. I usually make 2 and freeze one. Baked, of course. Your pie looks great.
About the faux g-cracker crust, would this be the same recipe to make graham crackers? Maybe the same procedure as making almond thins? Thanks, helper Sorry--I just reread your post and you said c-lose NOT cq. Last edited by helper; 06-30-2007 at 10:55 AM.. |

This mock graham cracker crust is one of the first lc crusts recipe that I did and it took quite a few attempts to get the taste right. Although it is a bit of a pain to make because it takes two steps I have always thought it was worth it. I did try several times to make the crackers but it never seemed to work out to my liking. Then I decided that the only thing I use graham crackers for were for the crumbs so why bother. What I did do this time that I have not done before was make a triple batch then vacuum sealed and froze two single pie bags of crumbs so they will be ready made the next time I need them.

Hi Kevin,
I like to make desserts just for the weekend - but find I'm sometimes "pushed" to get things done on Friday. This pie looks wonderful and I'd like to make it either tonight or tomorrow for next weekend - my question - how do you think it would freeze?? |

I am sorry, I am not sure how it happened but I did not list one of the ingredients I used in the filling part of this pie. I was making ice un-cream today from this recipe and realized I had left it out when I tasted it. |

I love butterscotch and haven't had anything butterscotch flavored for a long time, thanks Kevin - I even have the butterscotch Lorann oil. I'll give this a try first chance I get. One question though, do you add the oil right at the beginning with the Almond Breeze and egg or do you bring it to a boil first and then add the oil?

Happy 4th everyone! I made Kevin's cocoa brownies today. The batter was yummy and the brownies tasted great but were a little dry. I probably did something wrong or maybe baked it too long. I just got a convection oven and haven't gotten used to it yet. So, I decided to make a tort type thing with pudding on top of the brownies. I don't have pudding mixes but have most of the ingredients listed for this pudding. I don't have the Lindt chocolate. How much cocoa should I replace the Lindt chocolate for? Wasn't sure if 4 squares equals 4 oz? And how much sweetener? Thank you for these wonderful recipes and always answering our questions!!!

Thanks for the reminder to look at the correction! I think I need you standing by me every step of the way cuz I made a big boo boo. I was stirring the pudding and decided to look at the ingredients of the Almond Breeze and was shocked by the carb count - 22 per serving. Well, I quickly realized the Almond Breeze that I had gotten at my local Publix was the sweetened kind!!!!
![]() So, I basically added 5.5 carbs per serving. The tort is in the fridge setting up right now. I used two packets of Nestle's pre-melted chocolate in place of the Lindt and since I had the sweetness from the Almond Breeze mistake... I didn't add any more sweetener. |

This might be interesting to try and adding different flavor lorann oils, in place of butterscotch, to the recipe for the butterscotch version.

I use unsweetened plain soymilk with SF pudding mix all the time, just add 1 teaspoon of xanthan gum per box for regular pudding, 2 teaspoons for stiff pie filler.
