Ingredients

Topping

  • 1 (8 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed

Crust

  • 1 ½ cups almond flour
  • 1/3 cup granular no-calorie sucralose sweetener (such as Splenda®)
  • 6 tablespoons butter, melted
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Filling

  • 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 2 (14 ounce) cans sweetened condensed milk
  • ¾ cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons lemon zest, divided

Directions

Step 1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step 2
Mix almond flour, sucralose sweetener, butter, and cinnamon together in a large bowl. Press over the bottom and up the sides of a deep-dish pie plate to form a crust.

Step 3
Bake in the preheated oven until crust is firm, about 7 minutes. Let cool completely.

Step 4
Beat cream cheese in a bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in sweetened condensed milk. Add lemon juice and 1 teaspoon lemon zest; beat until thoroughly blended. Pour filling into the cooled crust.

Step 5
Refrigerate until filling is set, about 4 hours.

Step 6
Spread whipped topping over lemon filling. Garnish with remaining 1 teaspoon lemon zest.
