I made the most delicious Keto Peanut Butter Pie the other day! My little boy loves peanut butter balls and he made a YouTube video of making them (click HERE to watch my Keto Kid). I decided to make his favorite keto treat into a lovely keto pie! I used my keto pie crust recipe, Micah’s peanut butter ball recipe for a filling and top it with a chocolate coating.
In this keto peanut butter pie, I used mascarpone cheese in the filling because it is less tangy, but if all you have is cream cheese, that will work. I also garnished it with beautiful puffs of cream from my whipped cream canister which is one of my favorite keto gadgets. I am a minimalist and do not like a lot of gadgets; however, THIS whipped cream dispenser is always in my fridge for an easy garnish to fancy up any keto dessert. I just put heavy cream into THIS canister, (I have a professional dispenser because I use it so much, but THIS dispenser is a good one too and much cheaper) add a few tablespoons of Swerve confectioners (or stevia glycerite: non-bitter form of stevia), seal it and shake it up. Tada! Even though I am not an artist, this pie looks lovely!

Hi Maria! I am so darn happy and feel a heck of a lot better!
I started at 240 pounds on my 5’7″ frame 5 months ago this coming Tuesday when I stumbled across your book The 30 Day Ketogenic Cleanse in a Sprouts store. I was wearing size 18/20 pants and 20/22 tops and feeling miserable.
Yesterday I wore a pair of size 8 jean capris to my youngest’s h.s. graduation party and today when I went shopping with my daughter… I averaged size 10 pants. I have been a size 12 and much higher since junior high!!! My daughter (such a good sport) wore the same exact clothes I did…I can wear my 23 year olds clothes! What????!!!! Today I am down 45.4 pounds with less than 30 lbs. to my original goal!Keep up your Keto ways!! ” – Melanie
