Although the crust in this keto strawberry pie does require a quick bake, the creamy filling and juicy topping are completely no-bake, making it the ideal dessert for hot summer days when you want something cool, light, and easy. The base is a chocolate graham cracker-style crust made low carb and gluten-free with a mix of almond flour, coconut flour, cocoa powder, and a few pantry staples. Once baked and cooled, it becomes the perfect crunchy contrast to the silky smooth filling that goes on top. The texture is like hybrid of my keto cheesecake and strawberry jello whip.
The filling is where the magic happens. It’s a creamy, jello-like layer made with gelatin, sour cream, and a few other simple ingredients that come together to create a texture that’s light but sliceable—almost like a mousse-meets-panna cotta situation. It’s sweet, slightly tangy, and incredibly refreshing. Plus, you don’t even need to turn the oven back on once the crust is done. Just chill the pie until it’s set and top it with strawberries right before serving.
Speaking of strawberries, this pie is best when you can get your hands on ripe, fragrant berries that actually smell like candy. Their natural sweetness really shines here, and a simple slice-and-toss with a bit of sweetener (if needed) is all you have to do. You could totally swap in raspberries or even blackberries if you’d like, but the strawberry and chocolate combo is tough to beat.
Whether you’re hosting a summer get-together, need a pretty dessert to bring to a BBQ, or just want something cool to stash in the fridge for a few days, this pie checks all the boxes. It looks fancy, tastes like Neapolitan ice cream in pie form, and keeps things low carb without sacrificing flavor or texture.
