GLUTEN-FREE PIE CRUST

Yield Makes 18 ounces, enough for one 9- to 10-inch double-crust pie

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons golden flaxseeds
2 tablespoons brown or white rice flour
2 tablespoons tapioca flour
2 1/3 cups (9 1/4 ounces) millet flour
1 tablespoon superfine granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 cup (2 sticks) very cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 egg white
2 to 3 tablespoons ice water

Steps:

  • 1. Thoroughly soak and scrub all your equipment and work surfaces to remove any trace of wheat flour. Be sure to clean underneath the blade mechanism in the food processor and in between the grooves of any tools to free any crusty debris.
  • 2. Grind the flaxseeds in a coffee grinder or spice mill. Add the flax with all three flours, the sugar, and salt in the work bowl of a food processor and pulse to combine.
  • 3. Remove the lid for the processor's work bowl and sprinkle the butter across the top. Pulse until the texture resembles coarse crumbs.
  • 4. Pulse in the egg white, and then add the water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together.
  • 5. Remove the dough from the work bowl (it will be crumbly at this point) and gently knead it on a work surface or parchment paper lightly dusted with millet flour.
  • 6. Remove one third of the dough so that you have two pieces. Wrap both pieces of dough in plastic film and chill them in the refrigerator for 60 minutes or up to 3 days before using. If you are not making a double-crust pie, hold the smaller disk in the freezer for another use.
  • 7. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the larger disk of dough between two sheets of parchment lightly dusted with millet flour and roll it into a round 12 inches in diameter and 1/8 inch thick.
  • 8. Gently fit the rolled dough into a 9- to 10-inch pie pan, then crimp and shape the edges. Refrigerate the crust for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, if you are making a double-crust pie, roll out the other piece of dough between two sheets of parchment to a round approximately 10 inches across. Set it aside, keeping it between the parchment sheets to prevent it from drying out.
  • 9. Dock the bottom crust and weight it with a circle of parchment paper cut to size and a disposable pie pan resting gently above the crust to prevent it from puffing up while toasting. If your filling will be baked, blind bake the crust for 5 to 7 minutes. If you'll be using the crust for a custard pie where baking isn't required, blind bake it for 12 to 15 minutes-checking often after 10 minutes.
  • 10. Set the blind-baked crust aside to cool while you prepare the filling of your choice. Top and finish the pie as desired or as directed in your recipe

GLUTEN-FREE WHOLE GRAIN MEDITERRANEAN PIE CRUST



Gluten-Free Whole Grain Mediterranean Pie Crust image

For the flour here I use the same 70 percent whole grain flour to 30 percent starch (like potato starch, arrowroot or cornstarch) that I used in my whole grain gluten-free muffins a few weeks ago. It is based on a formula created by Shauna James Ahern, a gluten-free food blogger. Because there is no gluten involved you don't have to worry about overworking the dough, but the dough can break apart if you try to roll it out. I just press it into the pan, which is easy to do. I love the strong, nutty-flavored combination of buckwheat flour and millet flour. If you want a crust with a milder flavor, try a combination of cornmeal and millet flours or teff and millet flours.

Time 1h30m

Yield Two 9- or 10-inch tarts

Number Of Ingredients 7

120 grams (approximately 1 cup) millet flour (I make this by grinding millet in my spice mill)
100 grams (about 4/5 cup) another whole grain gluten-free flour, like buckwheat, cornmeal, or teff
95 grams (approximately 7 tablespoons) potato starch, cornstarch, arrowroot or a combination
5 grams (3/4 teaspoon) salt
50 grams (1/4 cup) extra virgin olive oil
150 to 165 grams (2/3 to 3/4 cup) water
10 grams (2 teaspoons) red wine vinegar or strained lemon juice (optional; the reason for the acid is that it relaxes the gluten in flour, but you don't have to worry about gluten)

Steps:

  • Sift together the grain flour and starch. In a large bowl or in the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with the paddle or a food processor fitted with the steel blade, add the salt and mix together. If using a bowl, make a well in the center, add the olive oil and mix in with a fork. If using a mixer or food processor, turn on and add the olive oil. When it is evenly distributed through the grain flour and starch, combine the water and vinegar or lemon juice and add it with the machine running. The dough should come together in a ball. In most cases you won't need as much water as is required for wheat flour dough, because the grain flours don't absorb as much, but each combination behaves a little differently. Divide into 2 equal pieces, shape into a flat circle and wrap tightly with plastic. The dough may be sticky, so flour your hands and work surface. Let rest for 1 hour.
  • To line tart pans place the dough in the center of the pan and, pressing from the heel of your hand, press the dough out to the edges of the pan, then up the sides. It should be soft and easy to manipulate. Pinch an attractive lip around the edge of the pan and refrigerate uncovered until ready to use.

NEVER-FAIL GLUTEN-FREE PIE CRUST



Never-Fail Gluten-Free Pie Crust image

A gluten-free pie crust using common ingredients. I've adjusted the method over time and have found this final recipe to work every time. It is perfect for both sweet and savory dishes. The trick is leaving large chunks of butter, whole, so they create a flaky crust. The baked crust holds its shape quite well and delivers a nice slice of filled pie beautifully without falling apart.
