Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8-inch baking dish.
2. Make the Crust:
  • In a bowl, combine almond flour, melted butter, erythritol, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form an even crust.
3. Bake the Crust:
  • Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until it turns golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool.
4. Prepare the Cherry Filling:
  • In a saucepan, combine cherries, erythritol, lemon juice, and chia seeds. Cook over medium heat until the cherries release their juices and the mixture thickens slightly. Remove from heat and let it cool.
5. Make the Crumb Topping:
  • In a small bowl, combine almond flour, chilled butter, and erythritol. Use your fingers to mix until crumbs form.
6. Assemble and Bake:

  • Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown.
7. Cool and Slice:

8. Serve and Enjoy:
  • Serve chilled bars and enjoy the rich, fruity flavors of cherry pie without compromising your keto lifestyle.
