INSTRUCTIONS
This is delicious!!! But don’t take my word for it- go try it out yourself! It feels like your having dessert on the hCG diet when in reality, you are mostly just eating ice and water.
LEMON JUICE (USUALLY 1/2 LEMON-1 LEMON’S WORTH)
1/3 CUP WATER
7-9 ICE CUBES
STEVIA TO TASTE (ORGANIC STEVIA IS BEST MOST NATURAL TASTE)
All you do is blend it up all together- the stevia in it is what will create the great thick, frothy texture. If you don’t use stevia the texture would not be nearly as pleasant. I know the recipe is so simple that it might be like, why are you making a recipe for that? But honestly, that’s the very reason I needed to make it! It had never occurred to me that i could make something tasty to eat that was so simple with only 2 ingredients aside from water until I was desperate for something “yummy” on p2 of the Bettabods hCG Diet Protocol.
Ingredients
A wonderful easy sugar free lemon meringue pie that can be made hot or cold, and prepared in advance.
INGREDIENTS
Crumble base
¾ cup almond flour/meal
1 tbsp granulated sweetener of choice (or to taste)
½ tsp ground ginger
55g/ coconut oil melted
3 tbsp water
Lemon custard (curd)
6 egg yolks
1 whole egg
1½ tbsp granulated stevia powder
zest and juice of 2 lemons
110g / 1 stick butter
Meringue
6 egg whites
2 tbsp granulated sweetener of choice (or to taste)
INSTRUCTIONS
Crumble base
Mix all the ingredients together until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs, or biscuit crumbs.
Spread the crumble mixture over a baking tray lined with baking parchment.
Bake at 180C/350F for 10-15 minutes until golden. Turn once or twice in this time so the crumbs brown all over and cook until crispy.
Remove from the oven.
Lemon custard (curd)
While the crumble is baking, whisk together the egg yolks, whole egg, sweetener and lemon juice/zest in a saucepan.
Heat over a very gentle heat (whisking continuously) until it is a smooth custard consistency.
Add the butter and mix again while melting. Stir until thickened again.
Remove from the heat.
Meringue
Whisk the egg whites and sweetener until stiff peaks form.
Place 6 circles of meringue on a baking tray lined with baking parchment.
Bake at 180C/350F for 10 – 15 minutes, or until golden.
To assemble.
Divide the crumble mixture between the 6 glasses or mason jars.
Divide the lemon custard/curd on each of the bases.
Place a baked meringue on top of each to complete the sugar free & low carb lemon meringue pies.
Serve immediately or chill in the fridge until ready to serve.
NOTES
To serve hot, make the crumble base and lemon curd as shown. Layer the base and the curd in individual heatproof jars and cook the meringue directly on top of the sugar free lemon meringue pie.
To serve cold, prepare the 3 layers as shown then construct the sugar free lemon meringue pies and keep covered in the fridge until ready to serve. This way they can be made a day ahead.
I love this recipe, and I love this pud! I would say that if you want to treat yourself on phase 2 then do this once in a while, and not on a regular basis, but for the rest of the phases i.e. 3 and 4 it is excellent.
