Best Featherlight Rice Flour Mix Recipes

Featherlight Vinegar Pastry (gluten-free pie crust) Recipe - (4.7/5) image

Provided by jtomlin622

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 1/4 cups Featherlight Mix (in Description)
1 rounded teaspoon xanthan gum
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 Tablespoon sugar (or to taste)
3/4 cup shortening
1 Tablespoon vinegar (white)
1 egg
4 Tablespoons ice water
Sweet rice flour for rolling (I used regular rice flour)

Steps:

In a medium bowl, blend the flour mix, xanthan gum, salt and sugar. Cut into the shortening until coarse crumbs form. In a small bowl, beat the vinegar and egg together with a fork. Add the ice water. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients with a fork and keep adding liquid until the dough forms a ball. Work a little with your hands to obtain a smooth texture. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes or more before rolling out. Divide the dough in half and roll out on sweet rice flour - covered waxed paper or plastic wrap. Use as much of the sweet rice flour as needed to work easily. Place in a pie tin. If using plastic wrap for easier handling, move it to the pie tin and invert the dough into the pan. Bake as directed for the filling used. For a baked crust, prick the pastry with a fork on sides and bottom. Bake the crust in a preheated 450-degree oven for 10-12 minutes or until slightly browned. Cool before filling.

Steps:

Sift flours together, and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Use to replace gluten-containing flours in most recipes. If you're using it to make cakes, add 1 teaspoons xanthan or guar gum per cup of flour mix.
