    Pie Crust #3 (Gluten-Free)

    Reviewed and edited by a celiac disease expert.

    1 ¼ cup rice flour
    1 teaspoon salt
    2/3 cup solid shortening (in mine, I included about 1 T. butter flavored Crisco in the 2/3 cup and the rest was regular Crisco)
    ½ cup cold water
    1 tablespoon potato flour (not starch)

    Blend rice flour, salt, and shortening in bowl. Set aside. In a small bowl, with mixer on low speed, gradually add potato flour to water--or use a small whisk. Pour the potato flour mixture over the rice flour mixture and work in with spoon. Then knead into a ball with as few strokes as possible. Either press across bottom and upside of your pan or roll between 2 pieces of wax paper that is dusted with rice flour. (I thought it worked better to pat it in the pan or between wax papers with fingers.) Flute edges and use for un-baked crust or bake and then fill with filling.

    Scott Adams

    Scott Adams was diagnosed with celiac disease in 1994, and, due to the nearly total lack of information available at that time, was forced to become an expert on the disease in order to recover. In 1995 he launched the site that later became Celiac.com to help as many people as possible with celiac disease get diagnosed so they can begin to live happy, healthy gluten-free lives.  He is co-author of the book Cereal Killers, and founder and publisher of the (formerly paper) newsletter Journal of Gluten Sensitivity. In 1998 he founded The Gluten-Free Mall which he sold in 2014. Celiac.com does not sell any products, and is 100% advertiser supported.

    This recipe comes to us from Karen Hutton.
    Although it asks for a crust I just pour the pumpkin-mixture into a glass pie dish and cool. It slices out just like a regular piece of pie.
    And remember to use gluten-free products.

    I made this yesterday for my son’s graduation party.  I created it off the top of my head, and everyone loved it.  I also made a regular crisp with wheat flour, but everyone seemed to prefer this one.  You can use any combination of fruit.  I like the fruit in my crisps to be slightly tart, as it is here.  If you’re using all rhubarb or other non-sweet fruit, you could increase the sugar a bit.  If using all strawberries or other very sweet fruit, you could decrease it.  The masa harina (corn flour) may seem an unusual choice, but it simplifies having to use a mix of gluten-free flours, and does not add any unusual taste or texture.   This is easy and yields delicious results!
    Here’s the recipe:
    Butter or oil a 13 x 9 glass baking pan with gluten free margarine, butter or oil. Prehea...

    Pie Ingredients:
    2 ½ cups coarsely chopped strawberries (or 2 cups strawberries + ½ cup blueberries)
    ¼ cup sliced strawberries
    1 cup chopped, dried dates or figs
    1 ½ bananas, ripe and mashed
    2 Tbs. light agave nectar or honey
    ¼ cup Jules Gluten Free All Purpose Flour*
    (*If you use another flour, be sure to use one which already includes xanthan gum and is not bean or rice-based, so that it has a proper bulk to starch ratio and will not make the pie dense or gritty.  The recipe for my all purpose flour may be found in my cookbook, Nearly Normal Cooking for Gluten-Free Eating, or in various media links from my website, and my flour mix can be purchased premixed from my site as well.)
    Crust Ingredients:
    1 ½ cups finely chopped pecans

      Scientists have discovered a cause of inflammatory bowel disease. They said it's a 'holy grail' discovery that could transform other autoimmune treatments.
