Number Of Ingredients 6

2 Tbsp olive oil, light
2 Tbsp honey or maple syrup

1/4 c amaranth flour
1/2 tsp cinnamon
3/4 c ground nuts or seeds

This pie crust is a lifesaver! I'm allergic to gluten and it's so hard to find good gluten-free pie crust recipes. This one is delicious and easy to make. I'm so grateful for it!

This recipe didn't work for me. The crust was too dry and fell apart. I think I might have used the wrong type of flour.

This pie crust was a little too crumbly for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I made this pie crust for a pecan pie and it was perfect! The nutty flavor of the crust complemented the pecans perfectly. I'll definitely be making this crust again.

This pie crust is a bit more time-consuming to make than some others, but it's worth the effort. The flavor is amazing and it's so flaky.

I'm not a fan of nuts, so I substituted sunflower seeds in this recipe. It turned out great! The crust was still flavorful and held together perfectly.

I'm not gluten-free, but I tried this recipe out of curiosity and was pleasantly surprised. The crust was flaky and flavorful, and it paired perfectly with my apple pie filling. Highly recommend!
