Gluten Free Shortbread Crust image

I bake this at 300 to keep the crust light if you wish you could bake it at 350 to give it more color. I use salted butter so only add a pinch of salt. It you wish you increase the salt to 1/4 tsp if your butter is unsalted.

Time 35m

Yield 1 9 inch pie, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup almond flour
1/4 cup sweet rice flour
1/4 cup rice flour
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1 pinch salt
6 tablespoons butter, melted
1/4 teaspoon guar gum or 1/4 teaspoon xanthan gum

Steps:

  • In a food processor add all the dry ingredients and pulse a few times to mix all ingredients.
  • Add the melted butter and pulse to evenly distribute. You may need to open and scrape the bottom of the bowl to make sure it evenly gets distributed. It will look crumbly but should hold together when press together.
  • Press onto a pie plate.
  • Bake at 300 degrees for 15-20 minutes. It will be blonde if you prefer more color you can increase temperature to 350 and only bake 12-15 minutes.
