This Luscious, Creamy, No- Bake Fresh Strawberry Cream Pie is Keto, Gluten Free, Grain Free, low carb and even nut free too!
Fresh Strawberry Cream Pie
No Bake ecipes are the joy of the spring and summer season for me. Fresh strawberries are in season and I love to use them when they are nice and ripe. You could certainly use another low carb berry of choice like raspberry, but my family loves strawberry. If you're into Blueberry I've got this awesome No Bake Blueberry Cream Pie!
Life a little easier when no oven time is needed and you just want to put together a pretty dessert for company or to take to a party.
Nut Free Low Carb Strawberry Pie
This pie is everything you want in a dessert. It's mouthwatering layers of crunchy crust, smooth sweet mousse, perfectly ripe strawberries and sweet sugar free vanilla whipped cream, make it one of those recipes your family will ask you to make over and over again. I make many of my recipes nut free using coconut flour or sesame and even sunflower since my youngest is allergic to tree nuts. You can definitely replace the sunflower seeds in the crust with a nut if you prefer.
The strawberries on top are not included in the nutritional info below as I went a little heavy on them for the pics and this would increase your carb content. Just a few will do for decoration when serving.
As long as you have a few kitchen appliances like a food processor or chopper of some sort and a KitchenAid mixer or handheld mixer, this recipe comes together quickly.
Did you know you can even make desserts in your slow cooker? I love doing that in the summer and have this yummy Blueberry Custard Cake you might love!
Low Carb Keto Strawberry Cream Pie
I love to WOW my friends and family when I make a pie like this and everyone is shocked when they taste it because they just can't believe it's made without sugar, low in carbs, and nut free too!
Love that, don't you?!

I made this and loved it! I ended up making just the filling and serving it as a mousse. It was delicious!
Elaine
Hi Brenda, I prefer baked crusts. Do you have a substitute I can use? Does not need to be nut free for me. Thank you
Kathy
I made this for our Mother’s Day party and it was such a hit with everyone! I’m the only one in the family eating keto, but this pie made everyone happy! I wish I could post a picture of the pie because it was so pretty. Perfect for a spring celebration.
Erika
Wondering if I can use the sunflower seeds I already have which are toasted and salted. Recipe calls for raw and unsalted, but it seems to my taste buds that a little more crunchy (toasted) and salty would make a great crust...?? Excited to make this for the family for VDay! =D
Bev
So after two months of this pandemic of eating carbs,. It was time to go back low carb and sugar free. Your site makes it easy for our household and we are grateful! For dessert I decided to try this recipe. we love iit! But i had to substitute and change some things with what i had at home. So I used a sf jello mix and used 1/2 c. Of water, put in a small sauce pot until disolved and omitted the stevia and fruit. It came out great. We will be using this recipe again for our sweet tooth. By the way I liked your comment when you say you make these recipes for the picky eater. Your recipes are quick and simple. Thank you!
Brenda
Thanks so much!

Can i use frozen raspberries thawed as substitute for fresh strawberries?
Brenda
Sure, I would just thaw and drain the frozen raspberries.
Eveline
This may be my new favourite recipe. I don't bother with the crust, just make a Strawberry Mousse and I love it!
Carmella
Pcan I make the dessert a day ahead?
Sarah
Hi Brenda, how long does this stay good in the fridge? I need to make it the day before we actually eat it.. Was planning on making it in the afternoon and we would be eating it the next day at noon. Thank you!
Brenda
Oh it's fine for up to 3 days in the fridge.

Hi
I'm dairy and gluten TERRIBLY INTOLERANT. What can I use for heavy creamer. These desserts look so delicious. Thanks
Deea
Hi!
This looks amazing! My daughter loves strawberries.
Can I replace the Stevia liquid with Erythritol?
Thank you!
Deea
Brenda
Of course, use whatever sweetener you like. I'd say if you have the Swerve confectioners to use that as any granulated sweetener will make this gritty not smooth.
Trevor

Jenny
How long would this keep in the fridge, please? Also, have you ever tried freezing it? I was thinking of making individual portions so I can save some for later, rather than keeping the whole dessert in my fridge. Thanks!
Kristi
This recipe isn't sugar free, you still use Stevia, which is still technically sugar.
Brenda
Incorrect. Stevia is not technically sugar. It is a natural plant, completely sugar free, doesn't spike blood sugar and is not artificial. No relation to sugar in the least. The leaves are boiled down to produce the liquid stevia. Please do some research.
