To Make Your Own GF Crust

    GF Crust

      Ingredients:

      • ¾ cup almond flour
      • ½ cup tapioca flour
      • ¼ cup coconut flour
      • ½ tsp xanthan gum
      • ¼ tsp sea salt
      • ½ cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cubed
      • 1 large egg
      • 1–2 tbsp ice water (as needed)
      • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar or lemon juice (optional)

      Directions:

      • In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, tapioca flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, and salt.
      • Cut in cold butter using a pastry cutter or fork until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
      • Beat the egg and mix into the dough.
      • Add ice water 1 tablespoon at a time until dough comes together. It should be moist but not sticky.
      • Shape into a disc, wrap in plastic, and chill for 30–60 minutes.
      • Roll out between two sheets of parchment paper. Gently place in pie pan and press into shape.
      • Chill again for 15–20 minutes before baking or filling.
      • For blind baking: prick the crust with a fork, line with parchment and pie weights, and bake at 375°F for 10–12 minutes.

      “Even when life feels crumbly, the right ingredients — handled with care — can hold something beautiful together.”
