Recipe type: Dessert
Serves: One 9-inch crust
Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 cups brown rice flour
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1/2 cup shortening
  • 4 to 5 tablespoons ice water
Instructions
  1. Oil your pie pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix flour and salt. Add shortening and work into the flour with a pastry blender or fingertips until mixture looks like irregular crumbs.
  3. Sprinkle on water, a tablespoon at a time, blending lightly after each addition just until dough begins to hold together. Form a ball, then flatten into a disk.
  4. Place dough disk on floured waxed paper and dust the disk with flour. Roll out to a circle about 2 inches larger than the pie pan. You'll probably need to gently repair splits as you roll. Place the pan, bottom-up, on the dough circle and flip pan, dough and paper. Slowly peel off waxed paper. Make any needed repairs.
  5. Trim off extra dough and crimp edges.
