Sprouted Pie Crust

(from greenfood’s recipe box)

Source: To Your Health Flour co.

Serves 8 people

Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup sprouted barley flour (can substitute millet flour for a non-gluten version)
  • 1/3 cup sprouted brown rice flour
  • 1/3 cup sprouted quinoa flour
  • 1/2 cup melted butter

Directions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the flours. Add the butter and stir with a fork until it forms a crumbly, moist (not wet) dough. (If the mixture is too dry, add water a few drops at a time.) Form the dough into a ball.

  2. Place the dough between two sheets of wax paper and roll it into a 10–inch circle. Transfer the circle of dough to a 9–inch pie pan and gently press it against the sides of the pan. Trim off the excess dough and crimp the edges. The crust is now ready to fill.

  3. If you want to pre–bake the crust for a no–bake pie filling, simply prick the bottom of the dough with a fork (to keep it from bubbling up) and bake at 450 degrees for 10 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool before adding your favorite no–bake filling.
