Push the crust mixture into a pie dish, making sure to cover the bottom and sides evenly.
Put the crust in the oven that has been heated beforehand and bake for around 10 minutes until it turns golden brown. Take it out and allow it to cool.
Prepare the filling: Mix together heavy cream, lemon juice, lemon peel, erythritol, eggs, and vanilla extract in a bowl.
Mix the ingredients until they are well blended and smooth.
Make the pie: Put the filling into the crust after it has cooled.
Put the pie back in the oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until the filling is firm on the edges but still a bit wobbly in the middle.
Relax and let it cool: After baking, take the pie out of the oven and allow it to cool down to room temperature.
Next, put the pie in the fridge and let it cool for a few hours until the filling is firm.
Serve: Cut the Keto Magic Lemon Pie into slices and serve it cold.
