GLUTEN-FREE PIE CRUST



Gluten-Free Pie Crust image

I have tried a lot of recipes trying to find one that compared with the traditional wheat crust that I have been missing. After throwing away many batches, I finally came up with this one and my family loves it. They said they couldn't tell the difference (I am not sure I believe that) but it sure did satisfy my cravings. Hope you like it too.

PASTRY RECIPE FOR PIE CRUST - GLUTEN FREE



Pastry Recipe for Pie Crust - Gluten Free image

Posted on behalf of Yahoo Group SillyYaks. This is the BEST pie crust I have ever made, even pre-gf! It is gluten free, and dairy free and can be made soy free as well.It is not crumbly, but it rolls out best between sheets of parchment paper. It has a wonderful taste and holds it shape well. I've used it to make whole pies and even turn-over style individual pies. --Mariann [my version of a recipe from the AiA Gluten & Dairy Free Cookbook.]

½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon baking powder
⅓ cup vegetable shortening
3 tablespoons cold water
½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Whisk the rice flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder together in a bowl. Work in the shortening until the mixture resembles sand. Stir in the water and vanilla extract.

Tips:

  • For a flaky crust, use cold butter and work it into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs. Avoid overworking the dough, as this will make it tough.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can use a pastry blender or two knives to cut the butter into the flour.
  • If the dough is too dry, add a little bit of ice water until it comes together. If the dough is too wet, add a little more flour until it is no longer sticky.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This will help to prevent the dough from shrinking in the oven.
  • When rolling out the dough, use a light touch and avoid overworking it. The dough should be about 1/8-inch thick.
  • Transfer the dough to a pie plate and trim the edges. Fold the edges under and crimp them to seal.
  • Prick the bottom of the dough with a fork to prevent it from bubbling up in the oven.
  • Bake the pie crust according to the recipe instructions. The crust should be golden brown and cooked through.

This recipe for gluten-free pie crust is easy to follow and results in a delicious, flaky crust that is perfect for any pie.
