Steps:
- Grease a 9-inch (26 cm) pie pan with butter. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients: almond flour, salt, and sweetener.
- Stir in cooled melted butter, vanilla, and beaten egg.
- Combine with a spatula at first, then knead with your hand to form a pie dough (Watch my step-by-step picture above in this post for visual help).
- Place the dough ball in the center of two pieces of greased parchment paper and roll into a large1/8-inch thick rectangle.
- Peel off the first piece of parchment paper, slide your hand under the second piece of parchment paper with the rolled crust on it and quickly flip over the grease pie pan.
- Peel off the remaining piece of parchment paper to release the dough on the pie dish. The crust will break slightly, that's fine.
- Gently push down the rolled crust to fit the pan - some extra dough will fall out on the side of the pan. Use these pieces of dough to patch the holes where the crust breaks. Keep patching holes and smoothen the crust with the back of a spoon.
- Prick the crust using a fork and cover the sides of the crust with foil - this prevents the sides from darkening too fast. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Prebake the crust for 15-20 minutes. If the center puffs up, use a fork to prick and deflate.
- Remove from oven and add your favorite pie filling and return to the oven following the pie recipe to set the filling. You can keep the foil protection on the side of the pan to prevent it from darkening. Bake until the filling of your pie is set.

Steps:
- In a food processor, blend all ingredients until dough clumps together. Chill 15 minutes. Roll out the dough on wax paper dusted with either cornstarch or tapioca flour. Transfer to a 9-inch tart pan and press in lightly. Chill again till firm, and fill. Bake as directed in your pie recipe; keeping an eye on the edges of the crust. If it starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with strips of foil. Also make sure your oven rack is in the center of the oven, and not close to the top.
