Creamy Rhubarb Pie


1 1/4 cup Just Like Sugar (OR erythritol)
2 tsp stevia glycerite
8 oz cream cheese or coconut cream
2 eggs
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp Celtic sea salt
3 cups chopped fresh rhubarb
Pie Shell:
2 cups blanched almond flour
4 TBS Just Like Sugar (OR erythritol)

1 tsp stevia glycerite
1/3 cup blanched almond flour
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 cup butter or coconut oil, softened

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Prepare pie shell, by beating all ingredients together. Pat into a pie pan (using fingers), then place in oven to bake for 12 minutes. Meanwhile, beat 1 cup sweetener, cream cheese, eggs in a large mixing bowl until smooth. Stir in vanilla and salt. Fold in rhubarb. Pour rhubarb mixture into pie shell. Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven.

Meanwhile, combine 1/3 cup sweetener, 1/3 cup blanched almond flour, and cinnamon in a small bowl. Cut in butter with fork or pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside.
