Gluten-Free
PASTRY or PIE DOUGH
2 Cups All Purpose Flour /Gluten-free Flour (I like Bob’s Red Mill 1-1 baking flour)
1 teaspoon Salt
14 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter (2 sticks of butter minus 2 tablespoons)
4+ Tablespoons Ice Cold Water (yes, with ice cubes)
PREPARATION
-
In a large bowl, sift together flour + salt
-
Using a pastry blender/food processor, work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles a coarse, crumbly dough. Don’t over process, pulse for 5-10 seconds and pause each time to see how it is mixing
-
Add the water to the dough & gently mix until combined. If using a food processor, again don’t over process. Pulse for 5-10 seconds and check, no more than 30 seconds.
-
If mixture is still dry, you can add more water
-
Remove from bowl/food processor and roll into a ball.
-
Wrap with beeswax fabric wrap/plastic wrap and store in fridge until ready to make or place ½ dough ball onto a lightly floured (same flour used in dough) surface
-
Using a rolling pin, lightly flour pin & top of dough. Roll out into desired shape. Repeat with remaining dough until it is all used.
-
If making crust, place rolled dough into pie pan and pinch top of dough into custom shape or use cookie cutters to place cut shapes on top of edges for a more decorative pie. No need to butter or flour pan.
-
Create the pie you choose.
-
Enjoy!
