The perfect gluten-free pie crust {gf, df, paleo}

December 2, 2019

Baking is one of the best things about the Holidays. Getting together with the family and baking pies and cookies, it’s so wonderful.

One of the most popular desserts during this time is pies. pecan pie, apple pie , pumpkin pie…… you name it. If it’s followed by the word pie it’s probably going to be on the table.

This season to prepare for the huge number of dishes you’re going to be making, the first thing you want to do is cut down on the difficult time consuming tasks and find ways to make them quicker and easier. So, that is where this pie crust comes in. This crust is perfect for every pie or filled pasty you’re going to be making because it’s easy to whip up and it’s gluten & dairy free! Not only is it free from common allergens but you don’t even realize this because of the addition of earth balance butter. This spread is perfect for all your baking needs because it makes your dishes taste like they contain real butter when in reality they don’t! What’s better than that!

Make this crust the night before or at least 4 hours so its had time to settle and will turn out buttery and flaky in the oven.

Tune in December 12th at 7 a.m to read my 1st blogmas post! This is my 3rd year partaking in blogmas and every year it gets more exciting!

To make this crust paleo use real grass-fed butter instead of vegan butter.

To make dairy-free use earth balance butter, or your favorite dairy-free spread.
