Como fazer Ground Pecan Crust Low Carb

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Grind 1 ½ cups of pecans in a food processor until finely ground. (For a crunchier crust, leave some texture.)
Add ½ cup of Splenda (or your preferred low-carb sweetener) to the ground pecans.
Add ½ cup (1 stick) of unsalted butter, cut into small pieces.
Pulse until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press the mixture firmly into a 9-inch pie plate or springform pan.
Bake for 8-12 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. Keep a close eye on it to prevent burning.
Let cool completely before adding your filling. This crust can also be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator.
