Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, Lakanto monk fruit sweetener, melted coconut oil, and salt. Mix until crumbly and press into the bottom of the dish.
  3. Bake the crust for 10-12 minutes until lightly golden. Allow it to cool.
