Keto cheese pie

 


Keto cheese pie

Ingredients

Cheese pie

1.1 liters (500 g) shredded cheddar cheese, divided

8 eggs, beaten

350 ml heavy whipping cream

salt and pepper

For serving

60 ml olive oil

½ tbsp red wine vinegar

salt and pepper

450 g smoked deli ham

1 tbsp butter

200 g (1.3 liters) lettuce

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease one ramekin per serving or any other serving-sized baking dish (approximately 5-6” (12 cm) in diameter).

In a large bowl, place half of the cheese. Whisk together the eggs and cream, and add to the bowl. Season with salt and pepper.

Place the remaining cheese into rounded piles (½ cup (1.2 dl) per serving,) on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Move cheese piles into the oven for 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese has melted completely. Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly, but not completely.

Using a spatula, place the still pliable cheese puddles over the ramekins. Guide the cheese to conform to the shape of each dish, to form a crust. Let cheese crusts harden completely.

Pour the egg mixture into the crusts. Bake the pies for about 30-35 minutes, or until they are set, and have turned a nice golden color.

Mix the olive oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper to make a simple vinaigrette. Prepare the salad.

Cut the ham into thin strips, and fry in butter over medium-high heat, until crispy tender. Serve with pies, salad, and vinaigrette.
