Ingredients
Pastry
- 3 cups almond flour
- ¼ cup coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoons xanthan gum
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 medium eggs
- 4 tablespoons butter unsalted
- 2 oz cream cheese
- 3 tablespoons allulose or other low carb sweetener
Pie Filling
- 12 oz strawberries
- 6 oz blueberries
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- ½ cup allulose or other low carb sweetener
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 tablespoon chia seeds ground (I used my coffee grinder)
Egg wash
- 1 small egg beaten
Instructions
Prepare the berries
- Wash and dry the fruit.
- Place the berries in a bowl each with ¼ cup of the sweetener between them. Allow to sit whilst you make the pastry. This is to draw the natural juices out.
Make the Pastry
- Place the flours, baking powder, cream cheese, xanthan gum, egg, butter, salt, baking powder and low carb sweetener into a food processor and blend until you have a dough.
- Form the dough into a ball with your hands, cover with parchment paper and place in the fridge. Chill for 30 minutes.
Assembly
- Preheat the oven to 180C/375F degrees.
- Add the ground chia, lemon juice and remaining sweetener to the two bowls of berries. Stir well.
- Lightly butter an 8 inch pie dish.
- Remove the pastry from the fridge and cut into half.
- Place one half of the pastry dough on a sheet of parchment paper and cover it with another layer of parchment paper.
- Roll out gently into a circle slightly larger than the pie dish.
- Remove the top layer of parchment paper, then using a hand under the bottom parchment paper place the pastry into the pie dish.
- Spoon the filling into the pie dish. First spoon the blueberries in the top left hand quarter of the pie. Fill the remaining pie with the strawberry mixture.
- Take the second half of the dough roll out. Using a star cookie cutter, cut a few star shapes out. My cutter was medium size and I cut out 3 stars. Place the stars over the blueberry filling in the pie.
- Cut strips from the remaining rolled pastry and place the over the strawberry filling in the pie.
- Brush the pastry strips and stars with the egg wash.
- Bake for 35 minutes until the top of the pie is lightly golden and firm.
- Serve with cream or low carb vanilla ice cream.

The pie can be baked with a pastry lid. I was having fun with the decorations!
