Best Coconut Oil Pie Crust Recipes
COCONUT OIL PIE CRUST
This is a butter/shortening-free pie crust. It is a bit healthier and just as tasty, flaky and buttery tasting. This makes 2 crusts and works for both sweet or savory pies. Just add 1 teaspoon sugar if you're making a sweet pie. Make sure to use refined coconut oil to hide the coconut taste. Unless of course you will use this for a coconut pie!

AMAZING COCONUT OIL PIE CRUST
I created this recipe for my niece, who is allergic to soy, and discovered that coconut oil makes the most amazingly moist and flaky crust I've ever tasted. If you have trouble finding coconut oil, try the health or organic food section of your store, or a health food supplier.

COCONUT OIL PIE CRUST
Steps:
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt. Slowly drizzle in the coconut oil, one tablespoon at a time, while using your thumb pressed against your fingers to swirl it around/press it into the flour. Once youâve added all the oil, continue mixing with your fingers (15-20 seconds) until the mixture resembles coarse meal with larger clumps (see third photo above). Transfer bowl to the freezer for 15 minutes then remove and use your fingers to squeeze the crumbs and break down the hard clumps of coconut oil. Drizzle in the water, one tablespoon at a time, and mix with your fingers until combined (the same way you were mixing in the oil, but in a more gentle fashion). Repeat until five tablespoons of water have been added. Pinch a piece of the dough together; if it sticks and forms a solid dough, youâre good. If it crumbles, add the remaining tablespoon of water and gently mix until incorporated. Just barely knead the dough (10-15 seconds) (do not overwork the dough) then flatten it into disk, place back in bowl, and set aside for 10-15 minutes. Feel free to wrap it in plastic and refrigerate until ready to use. It will keep for up to 24 hours or frozen for up to two weeks. You will need to let the dough thaw/soften before proceeding.
