Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups almond flour
- ¼ cup coconut flour
- ¼ cup granulated sugar

- In a bowl, mix almond flour, coconut flour, sugar, and melted butter until combined.
- Press crust mixture firmly into the base of the pan. Bake for 10 minutes, then let cool.

- Add eggs one at a time, mixing gently after each addition. Do not overmix.
- Pour filling over the cooled crust and smooth the top.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center has a slight jiggle.
