Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 cup white rice flour
1/2 cup tapioca flour
1/4 cup potato starch flour
1/2 cup cornmeal
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon xanthan gum
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1/2 cup very cold butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1/4 cup very cold shortening, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1/4 cup ice water
5 cups fresh blueberries (about 1 1/2 lb)
1/2 cup sugar
1/3 cup cornstarch
1 jar (12 oz) gluten-free blueberry preserves
1/4 cup butter, cut into small pieces
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 egg, separated
1 tablespoon milk
1 tablespoon sugar

Steps:

  • In food processor, place flours, cornmeal, 2 tablespoons sugar, the xanthan gum, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the pumpkin pie spice. Cover; pulse, using quick on-and-off motions, until blended. Add 1/2 cup butter and the shortening. Cover; pulse until coarse crumbs form, about 5 seconds. Add water; pulse just until dough comes together. Divide dough in half; flatten each into a disk. Wrap in plastic wrap; refrigerate until firm.
  • In large bowl, toss blueberries, 1/2 cup sugar, the cornstarch, preserves, 1/4 cup butter, lemon peel, lemon juice and 1/8 teaspoon salt; set aside.
  • Line cookie sheet with foil; place on lower oven rack to catch any drips. Heat oven to 375°F. Unwrap 1 dough disk (keep remaining dough refrigerated until ready to use). Between 2 sheets of cooking parchment paper generously sprinkled with rice flour, roll dough into 12-inch round about 1/4 inch thick. Carefully peel off top piece of parchment paper; replace paper and turn round over. Peel off parchment paper from second side of dough and discard.
  • Place upside-down 9-inch glass pie plate on dough round. Turn plate with dough over; remove parchment paper and discard. Pat dough into plate, pressing together any cracks or tears. In small bowl, beat egg white. Brush over dough. Spoon filling into crust-lined plate.
  • Unwrap second dough disk. Between 2 sheets of cooking parchment paper generously sprinkled with rice flour, roll dough into 12-inch round about 1/4 inch thick. Carefully peel off top piece of parchment paper; invert dough onto filling. Peel off parchment paper from second side of dough and discard. Using sharp knife, trim crusts even with edge of plate; crimp edge with fork to seal. Cut vents in top crust. In small bowl, beat egg yolk and milk. Brush over dough. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar.
  • Bake 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes or until crust is golden and filling is bubbly. Cool completely on cooling rack, about 2 hours.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my pie turned out terrible. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This pie was a disappointment. The crust was tough and the filling was bland. I won't be making this again.

The crust was a little dry, but the blueberry filling was delicious. I think I'll try a different crust recipe next time.

This pie is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still a solid recipe. I might try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

This pie is perfect for a summer gathering. It's light and refreshing, and the blueberries are always a crowd-pleaser.

I'm not usually a fan of gluten-free desserts, but this pie changed my mind. It was so delicious and satisfying, I couldn't tell the difference from a regular pie.

This pie was a hit at my last potluck! Everyone loved the unique flavor of the cornmeal crust and the gooey blueberry filling. I'll definitely be making it again.

I've tried many gluten-free pie crusts, but this cornmeal one is definitely my favorite. It's so easy to work with and doesn't crumble apart. The blueberry filling is also perfect - not too sweet and not too tart.

This gluten-free blueberry pie was a delight! The cornmeal crust was a nice twist on the classic recipe, adding a subtle sweetness and crunch. The filling was bursting with juicy blueberries, and the hint of lemon zest brightened up the flavor. Overa
