Ingredients
- 1 cup Otto’s Naturals - Cassava Flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 12 Tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
- 1/4 cup ice water
- Egg wash (optional - you can brush with cream, milk, or vegan milk to keep egg-free, it will just be less shiny)
Directions
- In a food processor, combine cassava flour, sugar, and salt by pulsing briefly.
- Add cold butter and process until butter is the size of peas, about 5 seconds.
- Add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, until just moistened and crumbly.
- Transfer dough to a lightly floured work surface and shape into a disk. Use a rolling pin to roll the dough into a circle big enough that it hangs over the sides of your pie pan.*
- Transfer pie crust to 9-inch pie pan and use your fingers to fit against the sides. Refrigerate while you prepare desired filling.
-
NOTE: The dough can be made up to 3 days in advance and refrigerated. Allow it to sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes or until pliable before rolling.
-
*TIP: If the dough starts to crack while rolling, use ice water to patch it up.
