Today I got a call from a friend asking if I had a recipe for a gluten free pie crust.
I had to tell her no, BUT I was able to let her know that I do have a frozen pie crust I love. The ‘Wholly Gluten Free 9″ Pie Shells’ in a 2 pack. They are great to work with, bake beautifully and taste fabulous.
I’m usually able to find them in either Whole Foods, Fresh Thyme or Better Health Stores, but they always seem to be down to the last two or three packages. I always buy at least two, sometimes three. Remember, they’re in the freezer section, and they last for months in the freezer.
I usually make one crust pies, lemon meringue, pumpkin, banana cream or chocolate cream. Lately I’ve gotten a little bolder with two crust pies. I’ve tried my hand at chicken pot pie and just this past week, I made a cherry pie (Kevin’s favorite) for his birthday. When I make a two-crust pie, I brush the top crust with my ‘Smart Balance’ dairy free butter. It comes out a beautiful flaky, golden brown and tastes like you’re eating pastry. Delicious!
Enjoy!
Thanks for stopping.
