Gluten Free Pie Dough Martha Stewart Recipes

Steps:

• Place flour and salt in a food processor. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal with some blueberry-size clumps.
• Beat together egg, ice water, and vinegar in a small bowl. Add to flour mixture and pulse just until incorporated, about 10 times more. Squeeze a small amount of dough to make sure it holds together. If dough is too dry, add more ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time. Divide dough in half and wrap each half in plastic wrap, forming each into 1 disk. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes and up to 2 days.

Steps:

• Put the sweet rice flour, sorghum flour, corn flour and potato starch in a large bowl and whisk to combine. Add the xanthan gum, guar gum and salt.
• Cube the butter and leaf lard into 1-inch pieces. Lay them gently on the flours. Put the bowl in the freezer for 15 minutes.
• Working quickly, take the bowl out of the freezer. Using a pastry blender or your hands, work the butter and leaf lard into the flours, coating the fat, until the butter and leaf lard are the size of peas. Don't go too far. You still want to see the fats in the flours.
• Pour 3 ounces cold water onto the mixture. Stir gently with your hands. You are looking for the flours and fats to be just wet enough that they stick together when pinched. You might need to add an additional tablespoon or two water, depending on the day. If you add a bit too much water, that's okay. A wet dough is better than a dry dough.
• Bring the dough together into a ball. Gently flatten it into a disc. Wrap it in plastic wrap.
• Refrigerate the dough for at least 1 hour.
• Place the disc of dough between two pieces of plastic wrap (you can also use wax paper or parchment paper). Working from the center outward, gently roll out the dough into a 10-inch circle.
• Remove the top layer of plastic wrap and gently fit the pie dough into a 9-inch pie pan. Settle it in gently. Don't stretch or push it around too much. Remove the second piece of plastic wrap. If the dough breaks, take small pieces of the dough and fill in any holes, smoothing the dough with slightly moistened fingers. Crimp the edges.
• Put the pie pan in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Place a buttered piece of foil on the pie dough, nestling it gently against the sides. Fill the foil with dried beans or pie weights.
• Bake the pie dough for about 20 minutes. Remove the beans and aluminum foil and return the pie dough to the oven for an additional 8 minutes.
• You now have a blind-baked pie crust, ready to finish with pumpkin filling.

Steps:

• Combine arrowroot starch, white rice flour, brown rice flour, and sugar in a food processor; pulse until blended. Add butter to flour mixture and pulse until mixture is the consistency of oatmeal.
• Transfer flour-butter mixture to a bowl; add eggs and vinegar. Knead mixture just until blended. Mix water, 1 tablespoon at a time, into dough (if dough is too dry) until dough holds together. Split dough into 2 balls, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate until chilled, about 1 hour.
• Spread a piece of plastic wrap on a work surface and sprinkle with arrowroot starch. Place 1 dough ball on the plastic wrap and flatten using your hands. Dust rolling pin with arrowroot starch and roll over dough until even thickness and about 9 inches in diameter. Repeat with remaining dough.

Steps:

• For the Crust: Spray a 9-by-1-inch round tart pan with a removable bottom with cooking spray (or brush with oil). In a bowl, combine coconut, flour, and kosher salt. Stir in butter and syrup until mixture has the texture of wet sand and no dry flour remains (it should be crumbly but hold together when pinched between your fingers).
• Sprinkle evenly over bottom of prepared pan, with slightly more of mixture at edges, then press evenly into bottom and up sides of pan (since crust is thin, it's important to distribute evenly before packing down). Refrigerate until ready to use or, covered, up to 1 day.
• For the Filling: Preheat oven to 350°F. In a small saucepan, combine butter, brown sugar, cream, and kosher salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; cook until thickened slightly, about 2 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes. Transfer tart pan to a rimmed baking sheet. Pour cooled butterscotch into crust, smoothing to edges with an offset spatula. Sprinkle chocolate and pecans into crust. In a bowl, whisk together condensed milk, eggs, and vanilla. Pour over chocolate-pecan mixture.
• Bake until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly in places, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool in pan on a wire rack 20 minutes. Carefully remove sides from pan and let cool completely (if crust is sticking anywhere along sides of pan, loosen by running a paring knife up and down in sticky spots before removing). To serve, sprinkle with flaky salt and cut into fingers.

Steps:

• Pulse cereal and almonds in a food processor until finely ground. Add butter, sugar, and salt; pulse until combined. Use immediately.

Steps:

• Place brown rice flour in a resealable plastic bag. Add butter to the bag one cube at a time, shaking to coat each cube evenly with flour. Seal bag and place in the freezer for 15 minutes.
• Whisk eggs and vinegar together in a small bowl. Place in the refrigerator.
• Pour gluten-free flour into a large bowl. Cut in butter with your fingers until mixture resembles pebbles with some large lumps of butter remaining. Stir in egg and vinegar mixture. Mix in water one tablespoon at a time until dough is no longer sticky and forms a ball.
• Wrap dough in plastic wrap; refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Divide dough into 2 pieces and roll out to desired thickness on a lightly floured work surface.
