• 1 teaspoon ground ginger
• 4 tablespoons (56 g) butter, melted

• 1 tablespoon (10 g) vanilla sugar-free instant pudding mix

Method

1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (170°C, or gas mark 3)
2. In a food processor with the S-blade in place, grind the almonds fine
3. Add the protein powder, the Splenda, and the ground ginger and pulse to mix
4. Now add the butter and pulse until everything’s blended
5. Turn the mixture out into a 9-inch (23-cm) pie plate you’ve sprayed with nonstick cooking spray
6. Press firmly into place, building up the sides, and bake for 12 minutes or until golden
7. Cool before filling
8. In a big mixing bowl, dissolve the gelatin in the boiling water
9. Add the grated lime zest and the juice
10. Now stir in the ice cream until the ice cream is melted and the mixture is smooth
11. Chill until the mixture is thickened but not set
12. Spoon the lime mixture into the prepared crust
13. Chill until firm
14. In the meantime, whip the cream with the pudding mix until you have whipped topping-but don’t overbeat, or you’ll get butter! Serve the pie with the whipped topping
