Gluten Free, Blueberry Pie

Blueberry pie.

Such a nice treat to have just about any time of the year, but if you are gluten free you may be thinking that you cannot have it. Well, I am going to tell you that you can.

This will work with frozen or with fresh blueberries, and if you are going to use frozen ones just double check to make sure that they are gluten free (just to make sure there are no additives for anti-caking on the berries). You will also want to rinse the blueberries off and dry them fairly well as the frozen ones tend to be extremly watery.

 

Ingredients:

Gluten Free, Pie crust

One of the hard things about having to be gluten free is the deserts that you miss out on.

I like to bake pies, and have always liked to bake pies but I had to quit with the addition of gluten free in my family (not by choice).

With gluten free fours more readily available (and here is a recipe for gluten free flour), here is a way to make the pie crust that you may want to use to keep some "normaility" in your life.

Note that this will make 2 crusts. If you nly need 1 crust for a custard based pie then only use half the recipe.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups of gluten free flour
  • 1/2 cup of butter (or some type of shortning)
  • 1 egg (this helps bind the crust)
  • 2/3 cups or so of ice cold water
  • 1/4 tsp of Xantham gum (if your gluten free flour has it, then omit this)
