Almond Flour & Rice Pie Crust


Almond Flour and Rice Pie Crust – A Favorite and easy to make

1/3 cup whole almonds ground to a fine powder in the blender.  There will be small chunks of almonds but they were not crunchy in the pie.

In a 9 inch pie plate, combine the ground almond flour, ¾ cup brown rice flour, ¼ tsp ground cinnamon and pinch of ground cloves.  Mix well with a fork

In a microwave dish, combine 3 Tbsp water, 2 Tbsp oil, & 2 Tbsp honey and heat on low setting until honey liquefies.  Drizzle liquid over the flour mixture in the pie plate and stir with a fork until well blended.  Let stand until the dry ingredients absorb the liquid.

Shape the crust by pressing mixture firmly into place with your fingers, covering bottom and sides of plate.  Pat top edge of crust into a straight edge.  Bake empty crust for 5 minutes at 350 degrees before adding your favorite filling.   Makes one crust.  Use in place of a graham cracker crust.
