Ingredients

  • ½ lb cold butter 1 cup, cubed
  • 1 cup tapioca flour
  • 1 cup brown rice flour
  • ½ cup white rice flour
  • 1 tsp xanthan gum
  • 1 TB organic pure cane sugar or coconut sugar could leave this out for savory pies
  • about ¼ cup water

Instructions

  • Put the cold butter, flours, xanthan gum, and sugar in the food processor and pulse to combine.
  • Add the water and blend to combine until the dough gathers and forms a ball.
  • Gather the ball of dough together, wrap it up, and set it in the refrigerator to chill for at least 30 minutes.
  • Before rolling the dough out, bring it out to warm up on the counter for about 5-10 minutes then warm it up with your hands while you knead it a little.
  • Form the dough into a disk and roll it out on a floured surface.
  • Roll the dough up onto your rolling pin and gently lift it up into the pie plate.
  • Fold under the edges and smooth them out. Then crimp off the edges how you wish.
  • From here, you can pour in your pie filling and bake according to your recipe, or you can poke a fork in the bottom and bake it off according to your pie recipe instructions if that is how your recipe goes.
