- Remove from the heat and drain well.
- Using paper towels, pat try to remove excess moisture from the zucchini slices and place in a mixing bowl.
- Set aside.
- In another bowl, mix the almond flour and Erythritol.
- Then add butter cut in pieces and use your hands to combine and create crumbly dough.
- Set aside.
- Into the bowl with the cooked zucchini slices, add cream of tartar, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice and the caramel sauce.
- Mix until well combined.
- Place the zucchini mixture on top of the pie crust and spread evenly over the top.
- Crumble the almond dough over the top and place in the oven for about 30 minutes at 150 °C/ 300 °F.

- The filling will need to reach room temperature before you cutting it or it will be too soft.
