Variations & Tips
Flexibility is key with this pie crust, allowing you to adjust to your taste or dietary needs. For a richer, buttery flavor, add an extra tablespoon of butter. If you prefer a crust with a hint of sweetness suitable for dessert pies, include the optional erythritol or substitute it with another keto-friendly sweetener like stevia. You can also add spices such as cinnamon or nutmeg to the dough to enhance sweet fillings, or a pinch of garlic powder for savory versions.
