THE PIE GLUTEN FREE RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Place a baking sheet on the rack in the center of oven.
• For the pie crust: In a medium mixing bowl, combine flour, salt, and xanthan gum.
• With a pastry cutter, cut butter into flour mixture until the butter is small, no larger than the size of a pea.
• Add milk and combine. Use your hands to work the milk into the dough. Add additional milk if needed.Knead dough until it comes together. Form a ball with the dough.
• Place the dough ball onto a large piece of parchment paper and shape into a disc. Cover with a second piece of parchment and roll out into a 10-inch circle.
• Peel the top piece of parchment paper off, and invert into a greased pie pan. Flute the edges. Use your fingers to repair any tears in the crust, if needed.
• For the filling: In a medium mixing bowl, mix sugar, maple syrup, melted butter, eggs, salt, and vanilla. Add pecans and stir just until combined.
• Pour filling into the prepared crust. The pecans will float to the top as the pie bakes.
• Place the pie on the baking sheet and bake for 45-55 minutes until the center is set and the pie doesn’t jiggle when shook. Cover the pie with foil halfway through to keep the edges of the crust from burning.
• Remove the pie from the oven and cool completely before cutting.
