QUICK NO-CRUST ITALIAN SPINACH PIE

This is a delicious no-crust savory pie that goes together quickly, and is very satisfying. The oregano and roasted red pepper give it a wonderful flavor. It is a good high-protien, low-carb alternative to quiche or to the Bisquick version of no-crust vegetable pies. The original recipe called for 40 minutes baking time, but it took a full hour in my oven. One pie serves 4 as a main dish (only 320 calories per serving!), or 8 as a side dish.

Tips:

  • Use cold butter: This will help to prevent the crust from becoming tough.
  • Work the butter into the flour quickly: This will help to prevent the butter from melting and making the dough greasy.
  • Add just enough water to moisten the dough: Too much water will make the dough tough.
  • Chill the dough before rolling it out: This will help to prevent the dough from shrinking in the oven.
  • Bake the pie crust at a high temperature: This will help to create a flaky crust.

With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a delicious and flaky pie crust from scratch. This crust is perfect for any type of pie, from sweet to savory. So next time you're in the mood for a homemade pie, give this recipe a try.
