Gluten-Free Pie Crust is tender and flakey while also being dairy-free and refined sugar-free. As a matter of fact, my friends and family couldn’t tell the difference between a crust made with All-Purpose Flour. Indeed this has the same flavor and texture. Yes, it again uses my favorite grain-free flour Cassava. Perfect with all the holidays coming up Easter, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, etc. One of the easiest pie crust recipes. In summary, this recipe uses Cassava flour and no Xanthan Gum is needed. Gluten-Free Pie Crust with strawberries inside.

Indeed, I have done research on making grain-free pie crust. Not to mention the time I took with trial and error to get this recipe perfect so you don’t have to. You won’t miss the wheat grain in this recipe.

Gluten-Free Pie Crust:

Most people love pie. Heck, I love pie. When I first made this recipe I forgot to write down the measurements. So I had to make this several times before I remembered to write down all the ingredients and take pictures. Baking, cooking, and writing recipes have always been a hobby of mine. I love having a recipe float around in my head until coming to fruition. Sometimes a recipe just sits and ruminates until I finally decide it is the time to try to make it a reality. Use with my Gluten-Free Fresh Strawberry Pie.

Monk Fruit is from the fruit in China as it is refined sugar-free I use it in my recipes. It has been used for centuries in China and is 20 times sweeter than fruit juices. (1)

This recipe is for a one-crust pie. However, if you need a double crust just simply double the recipe.
