Print Recipe

Prep Time 15

Servings 2 shells

Ingredients

140 g White rice flour
140 g Brown rice flour
105 g Almond flour
35 g Arrowroot starch
1/2 cup Cold butter cut into chunks
1/4 cup Neutral oil Refinded coconut or grapeseed work well
1 cup Whole fat greek yogurt

Instructions

Mix together flours
Cut in butter and oil with fork or pastry cutter
Mix in yogurt until dough comes together
Add a small amount of cold water if needed
Wrap in plastic wrap and chill

Notes

Note: This will not look like normal pie crust dough, it will be much softer, like fluffy play dough. That is what it is supposed to be like.

Also, there will be a 10 minute period when cooking the pie that everything will smell like hot yogurt. Do not worry, your pie crust will not taste like that.

Some Variants

Savory

Try adding in 1/2 tsp of paprika, or turmeric to the flour for use with a quiche or meat pie

Sweet

Use a flavored yogurt, or add 2 TBS sugar to the crust for an extra indulgent dessert pie.
