Why You’ll Love This Keto Chocolate Pie

  • Chocolate pudding-like texture. The filling is slightly firmer than traditional pudding because of the gelatin, but the flavor is true to chocolate pudding.
  • Low net carbs per slice. Each serving contains about 7g net carbs. Serve with homemade whipped cream or chopped no‑sugar‑added chocolate chips for extra indulgence.
  • Kid- and guest-approved. This pie consistently disappears quickly—even among people who don’t follow a low‑carb diet.

Ingredients Needed to Make This Keto Chocolate Pudding Pie Recipe

Exact ingredient quantities are in the recipe card below.

  • Heavy whipping cream
  • Eggs (whole and yolks)
  • Vanilla extract
  • Salted butter
  • Coconut flour
  • Swerve (both confectioners and granular)
  • Non‑stick cooking spray
  • Unflavored gelatin
  • Salt
  • No‑sugar‑added semisweet chocolate chips

How to Make Keto Chocolate Pie (Quick Overview)

This is a brief overview. Full, exact measurements and step‑by‑step instructions are in the recipe card at the end of the post.

Let’s get started!

Step 1: Make the Crust

The filling sets in the refrigerator and doesn’t require baking, but I prefer a baked crust for a classic texture. If you want a no‑bake option, you can substitute a no‑bake plain crust or a no‑bake chocolate crust instead.

Press the crust mixture into a 9″ pie pan and bake until set and slightly browned around the edges. Cool the crust while you prepare the filling.

After baking, the crust should be golden along the edges and fully set.

Using a disposable pie pan makes it easier to remove and slice the pie, but any 9″ pie pan will work.

Step 2: Make the Filling

In a medium saucepan (off the heat), combine heavy whipping cream, water, and egg yolks and whisk until smooth. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium‑high heat, then reduce to a simmer.

In a small bowl, whisk together granular sweetener, unflavored gelatin, and salt, then add this to the saucepan and whisk until fully incorporated.

Melt the chocolate chips with the butter (microwave in short bursts at reduced power or use a double boiler), then whisk the melted chocolate into the hot cream mixture until smooth and glossy.

Remove the pan from heat and stir in vanilla. Pour the finished filling into the cooled crust, then refrigerate for at least four hours, or until fully set.

Serve slices as shown, or add extra whipped cream and chocolate shavings for a more decadent presentation. Either way, this pie is rich, chocolatey, and satisfying.
