What a wonder you are! I learn so many helpful tips from you and am truly thankful for your delicious and instructive demonstrations. I am having to relearn baking to navigate meeting my husband's newly diagnosed diabetic needs. I almost always go to your posted recipe link to save your recipe for my collection. I'm not sure how difficult it would be for you to add a [print recipe] option - it takes alot of copy/paste into notes with extra work-arounds to be able to print your amazing alternative creations. Thank you again for the effort you take to bring us recipes you've professionally derived and tested. PS. I wish you could see how grateful my husband is when he is able to eat a dessert or treat like this that he thought he was no longer able to enjoy. 🥰🤗🙏
I'm happy your husband enjoys. I need to hire someone for my website because I'm horrible with that stuff, just one generation behind the computer web development generation. We had em and learned the basics but that's it. Hopefully soon I'll be able to get a cookbook or something out there to help support the fam once I have the baby.
@@KetoUpgrade oh, thank you for your kind reply 🤗 I wasn't thinking of you needing to code for a print recipe option - I was thinking some website templates have that as an optional feature that can be added to your page. I know just a little about recent tech - computers were just becoming publicly available way back when I was in high school! 🤦🏼♀️ I did, however, teavh elementary computer class the last 10 years of my teaching career.... learning way more about tech than my old brain wanted to retain 🙃. Thank you again for your extra work in bringing wonderful (and usable) keto recipes to us. Wish we were neighbors, I doula and am a cuddly Grammie the Nanny 🥰💐
These are delicious! I didn't have key limes, but I'll get some for my next batch. Can't be much better though. The crust is brilliant and could be a cookie by itself. I also just used whipped cream from my siphon as we ate them for dinner and breakfast 🥴. Hey why not?
Thank you for showing how to add the gelatin into the whipped cream. I tried to slowly pour bloomed/slightly warmed gelatin into mixer full of cream to stabilize it and got the little solid pieces throughout. Thx for the tip about tempering it with little cream first til mixed then adding. I have so many recipes that use whipped cream on top but don't take them to events because I couldn't get a good stabilized cream. Thanks to you and this video, now I can. WooHoo!
This looks delish! It’s my next dessert recipe to try! By the way, if you put your container onto damp kitchen towel and it won’t run away when you try to whip with one hand.
Made these! So fucking good. I used your graham cracker recipe to make a crust, also very good. Tastes like store bought except i had to use fresh non key limes, which definitely made it less tart. Adding more lime zest makes up for it though. Thank you so much for all your recipes, these really made my week. Will post pictures of my slightly burned crust top ones on insta later for you
Tried these over the weekend. Fantastic. They tasted like a real Key Lime Pie. Can't wait to try thus with your upcoming graham cracker crust. Will need to double the pie filling for that. Thanks so much
One of my earliest keto desserts (4 yrs ago) was my mom's recipe for lemon meringue pie but subbed Swerve. Omg...made me SO mad when it crystallized 😢 All that hard work, cost of ingredients, anticipation.
Yeah been there a lot over the last 3 years, it sucks but i hated using others recipes and having fails so thats why i started doing it for myself. And i have recipes I've been working on since the beginning that I'm over 20 tests in, havent figured them out and a lot are not edible.
That looks so awesome. And if anyone is curious yes, regular like juice will work but the pie will probably be a bit sweeter. Key limes are tiny little guys that can be quite a bit sharper/tangyier than regular limes.
Thanks! And thank you for the info, I looked it up after, didn't even think about it before because pastry chef me just goes to what I know a lot of the times. And that key lime juice is what I know, lol.
@@KetoUpgrade question; I have everything to make these but I only have Olive Nation Key lime pie extract. Could I use that? If so would I have to add more eggs or more condensed milk?
@@KarenLeon457 yeah you only need 1/4 cup so maybe 1 tbs. Extract and maybe if you have lemon juice for the 3tbs. I read you can mix lemon and lime juice for key lime pie.
Thank you I try to be as thorough as I can. It really makes all the difference, I want your desserts to come perfect. I tried to making someone's keto sweetened condensed milk recipe twice and the first time I didn't reduce it enough the second time I reduced it too much. So much wasted time and ingredients!
Thank you my dear.you knocked it out of the ballpark with this recipe. I think I’ll love the shortbread crust recipe and so glad your using Allouse I can’t stand the taste of other sweeteners. I haven’t tried any of the flavored Stevia’s so I am not sure if those couple drops of vanilla stevia will taste nasty or not!!
I have a few different pie crust recipes on my channel, neither have sweetener so you could use either for a savory crust. My pumpkin cheesecake pie is a coconut flour crust and my dutch "apple" pie is a combo flour crust/ Thank you!
Sounds like a winner! I'm in Canada and finally got to order some Allulose today. When it comes in, I'm trying these. I'm not fond of the coconut flour taste, but a bit of cinnamon in the crust might hide it and also make it closer to a graham cracker flavour.
Thanks! Glad you could get allulose. I get the organic great value brand coconut flour from Walmart and to me it has a lot less coconut flavor than others I've used. I don't like coconut much either.
@@KetoUpgrade My allulose came in and I made 1/2 this recipe on the weekend using regular lime juice and some zest. SO GOOD (even with coconut flour ;-) And the bitesize helps with portion control. I was surprised at how little you simmer down the cream for the condensed milk... I went too far and didn't have quite a full cup available, but likely wouldn't have mattered. DEFINITELY making these again. Thank you, Alycia!
@@ellawalsh9571 Awesome!! So glad you enjoyed it!!! Definitely hard to get the condensed milk exactly right, everyone's stove is different. But about 15 minutes or less if it's at a simmer. Thank you for the awesome comment! You are sooo welcome Ella!!!
Can these be frozen? If so what is your best recommendation to prepare fore freezing & for how long? Also what about unfreezing so that doesn’t start looking like a running mess?
Yes I believe they should freeze fine as long as you make a stable whipped cream for the top and store in an air tight container for a few weeks. Defrost under refrigeration to prevent getting runny.
I used powdered allulose once in frosting and it made my cake wet. Allulose holds onto moisture which is why it's good for liquid and custard applications, which is what I mostly use it for.
@@KetoUpgrade gotcha. I wasn’t sure if it had anything to do with different FDA regulations. I’ve never used it before so not completely familiar with it.
Figured out a delicious sweetened condensed milk recipe, can't wait to make many more recipes with it!!! So many possibilities now!!😀
you are completely awesome, thanks for your dedication! best keto channel ever
@@tamsteak aww thank you!😊

You are very welcome! Glad I found the way too, I like whipped cream on all my desserts! Lol
I LOVE Key lime PIE!
I love allulose. I made a keto lemon poke cake this weekend and topped it with an allulose based Italian meringue buttercream.
Me too! That sounds delish!!
Would you be willing to share the recipe, please?
This looks delish! It’s my next dessert recipe to try! By the way, if you put your container onto damp kitchen towel and it won’t run away when you try to whip with one hand.
Made yesterday and served today. Everyone loved them, even the non-keto folks!

I'm making this one. I love that you don't have a ton of ingredients.

Thank you
You're welcome
*Looks really good* 🤤
I’ll be in Key West tomorrow! What timing!
Ha that's awesome! I've been there once but only for a day on a cruise, didn't get to explore much. Have fun and eat some pie! Lol
Absolutely love all the amazing recipes
Thank you!
You had me at key lime!🤤😋
😊

Awesome!!! Sorry, didn't get notified of your response for some reason. Hope they turned out great!!!
I love the tips and tricks you give to be successful it makes a BIG difference!!!

I loved your lemon bars! Family did too!! I would love it if you could “keto” lemon chess pie. That’s my family’s favorite. Love your videos!
Awesome to hear!!! I only just heard of that pie at my last job. Maybe one day I will make that. Glad you are enjoying!
I sure need a keto macaron
Yeah, it is just so frustrating, I've been working on them since 2020.
Love your recipes and I will be making this for sure.
Awesome! Thank you, one of my mom's favorites!
Thank you my dear.you knocked it out of the ballpark with this recipe. I think I’ll love the shortbread crust recipe and so glad your using Allouse I can’t stand the taste of other sweeteners.

Thank you! You're welcome!!! The flavored stevia is optional, but I use it in my iced coffee every morning, lol.
I haven't been able to get a good key lime pie recipe down yet and it's one of my favorites.
Hope you try and enjoy! My mom said this was her favorite recipe by far when I first made it.
@@KetoUpgrade I just recently made them and they were so delicious. Had to stop myself from eating too many, lol. Thank you for this recipe!
It’s not just the ones in the U.K. that can’t use allulose , we can’t even buy it. 🤯🤯🤯
Hi Alycia. Do you have a recipe for a savory crust to use for quiche lorraine? (Or do you have a quiche lorraine recipe?) Your recipes are delicious!
I have a few different pie crust recipes on my channel, neither have sweetener so you could use either for a savory crust. My pumpkin cheesecake pie is a coconut flour crust and my dutch "apple" pie is a combo flour crust/ Thank you!
very awsome super

@ketoupgrade thank you for all the testing you have done. How long do you think the condensed milk will stay good in the refrigerator ?
You're welcome, I have a whole sweetened condensed milk video now. A few weeks in the fridge but can also be frozen for months.
Can these be frozen? If so what is your best recommendation to prepare fore freezing & for how long? Also what about unfreezing so that doesn’t start looking like a running mess?
Yes I believe they should freeze fine as long as you make a stable whipped cream for the top and store in an air tight container for a few weeks. Defrost under refrigeration to prevent getting runny.
My sweetened condensed milk is like carmel sauce. Did I cook it too long?
Yeah it should be a light tan color not brown. I have pictures on my blogs of what colors it should be.
I heard that BochaSweet doesn't crystalize.
I've been slowly experimenting with it but its really expensive and comes in super rock hard clumps.
Can we just add stevia powder instead of the drops?
Yes I just don't know if it's equal from liquid to powder.
@@KetoUpgrade ok. Ty so much!!!
Can I use liquid allulose
I don't know, I've never used it. I'm guessing there are added ingredients besides allulose so it might be different using it.
Why Monkfruit in the cream and not Allulouse?
I used powdered allulose once in frosting and it made my cake wet. Allulose holds onto moisture which is why it's good for liquid and custard applications, which is what I mostly use it for.
@@KetoUpgrade Thank you for the tip... and your videos.
Why cant they use that sweetener in Europe?
They haven't approved it yet, from what heard it's in the process but it's a very lengthy one.
Why can’t people in the UK use allulose?
I've had people from the UK say they can't get it and ask me for an alternative. Same thing with Canada, they are just now able to get it.
@@KetoUpgrade gotcha. I wasn’t sure if it had anything to do with different FDA regulations. I’ve never used it before so not completely familiar with it.
