Ingredients
For the whipped cream:
- 1 cup heavy cream, cold
- 2 tablespoons Pappy Van Winkle Bourbon Barrel Aged Pure Maple Syrup
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon bourbon
For the pie:
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted, plus more for greasing the tart pan
- 2 cups plus 2 tablespoons almond flour
- 1/4 teaspoon Himalayan pink salt
- 1 tablespoon Pappy Van Winkle Bourbon Barrel Aged Pure Maple Syrup
- 1 large egg
- 4 cups fresh strawberries, sliced. You can really use any fresh summer fruit for this. Thinly sliced peaches would be delicious too!
- Vanilla ice cream (optional)
Directions:
- For the whipped cream: In a large metal mixing bowl, add heavy cream and beat on high until it thickens and peaks form. Slowly fold in 2 tablespoons maple syrup, vanilla extract and bourbon. Cover, and refrigerate until ready to use.
- For the pie crust: Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Generously grease 9-inch tart pan with coconut oil. In a large bowl, stir together flour and salt until combined. Add coconut oil, 1 tablespoon maple syrup, and egg and stir until mixture forms a ball. Lightly press dough into tart pan and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until crust is light golden brown. Remove pan from the oven and let cool completely.
- To assemble: Fill pie crust with 2 cups whipped cream and top with sliced strawberries. Drizzle with a little extra maple syrup if desired. Slice and serve. Pie can be served with vanilla ice cream.
