Posted on by Liz Pilotto

Ingredients

PIE DOUGH CRUST

Preheat oven to 350°
*In a mixing bowl add 2 cups of organic gluten free flour and 1/2 tsp. salt and 1/2 tsp. 

xanthan, gum. Mix all dry ingredients together, making sure they are well blended.

*In a measuring cup add 1/2 cup plus 2 Tbs. Organic grape seed oil. Whisk into the oil
7 Tbs. cold organic almond milk and 1 Tbs. agave syrup. Whisk until nice and creamy.
*Add the oil mixture to the flour. With a fork mix gently. Do not over mix, you want the pie crust to be light and flaky, not tough like shoe leather. Shape into a ball. Roll out 3/4 of the pie dough in between two sheets of wax paper. Place rolled out dough into a 9”pie pan. (I used a pampered chef)
*Put fork holes all over the bottom and sides of the pie dough in the pie pan.  
*Add the prepared apple slices to the pie pan. 
*Roll out rest of the pie dough with any scraps for the top of the pie.
(This crust can be pre-baked for a no-bake filling or filled with fruit for a fruit pie or any custard filling.)
