I don't have a crust recipe, but... I normally make mine crustless. They're lower cal/fat that way and I think they're much yummier.

I haven't tried it but the pie crust from the Gluten Free Pantry seems to be a favorite on here.

I tried the gluten-free Pantry Pie Crust and was thinking that it would be a good crust for a quiche. I haven't ventured into recipes and am just trying mixes right now, so I don't have any advice on recipes.

A bag of shredded simply potatoes topped with a stick of butter is a really good crust. Put the potatoes in a deep dish, cover with melted butter and bake for 20 nminutes. Then add egg mixture and bake until done.

I always thought that quiche was better without the crust. :)

I use my old pie crust recipe, with a few modifications. No one complains about the taste at all and it has a good texture - just not quite as flaky as with poison white wheat flour. I've made chicken pot pie, berry pies and apple pie with it, as well as just sprinkling cinnamon sugar on and baking it flat. I'm sure it would work for quiche.

Crust for one 9" pie shell:

1 C gluten-free flour mix*

1/4 tsp xanthan gum

1/2 tsp Ener-G Egg Replacer (can leave this out)

1/2 C Butter

1/4 C VERY cold water

Sift flour, xanthan gum and egg replacer together. Cut butter into flour with pastry cutter until it resembles coarse sand. Add cold water and stir well until it forms a ball. It might be a little sticky. You might want to refrigerate it at this point for 10-15 minutes. Roll out onto a well-floured board. Very carefully pick up and put into pie pan.

*I use 3 C brown rice flour, 1 C potato starch, 1/2 C tapioca starch and 2-1/2 tsp xanthan gum, sifted together 3 times. Store in the refrigerator.

If I make a crustless quiche can I just pour the egg mmixture into greased large muffin tins?

:) Hi my name is Kris. I just made a quiche for dinner yesterday and I used the Gluten Free Pantry Quick Mix. Take 2 cups of the mix and 3/4 cup water. Mix together and spread in a greased pie plate, then brush with mustard. Before my husband was diagnosed I used to make the crust with Bisquick. He said it tasted great and he couldn't tell the difference. Give it a try!

I had a quiche that was made with sliced potatoes as a crust. It was pretty good. I'm not too crazy about quiche anyway though.

      Just a gluten free diet is not enough.  Now you have to identify and replenish your malnutrition.  Celiac disease is co-morbid with malabsorption syndrome.  Low vitamin D, Low Thiamine caused Gastointeston Beriberi, low choline, low iodine are common the general population, and in newly diagnosed Celiacs in the western culture its is more likely.  It takes time to heal and you need to focus on vitamins and minerals.  Gluten free foods are not fortified like regular processed foods.

      Dear Kitty Since March I have been following your recommendations regarding vitamins to assist with various issues that I have been experiencing.  To recap, I am aged 68 and was late diagnosed with Celiac about 12 years ago.  I had been experiencing terrible early morning headaches which I had self diagnosed as hypoglycaemia.  I also mentioned that I had issues with insomnia, vertigo and brain fog.   It's now one year since I started on the Benfotiamine 600 mg/day.  I am still experiencing the hypoglycaemia and it's not really possible to say for sure whether the Benfotiamine is helpful.  In March this year, I added B-Complex Thiamine Hydrochloride and Magnesium L-Threonate on a daily basis, and I am now confident to report that the insomnia and vertigo and brain fog have all improved!!  So, very many thanks for your very helpful advice. I am now less confident that the early morning headaches are caused by hypoglycaemia, as even foods with a zero a GI rating (cheese, nuts, etc) can cause really server headaches, which sometimes require migraine medication in order to get rid off.  If you are able to suggest any other treatment I would definitely give it a try, as these headaches are a terrible burden.  Doctors in the UK have very limited knowledge concerning dietary issues, and I do not know how to get reliable advice from them. Best regards,

      @rei.b,  I understand how frustrating starting a new way of eating can be.  I tried all sorts of gluten-free processed foods and just kept feeling worse.  My health didn't improve until I started the low histamine AIP diet.  It makes a big difference.   Gluten fits into opioid receptors in our bodies.  So, removing gluten can cause withdrawal symptoms and reveals the underlying discomfort.  SIBO can cause digestive symptoms.  SIBO can prevent vitamins from being absorbed by the intestines.  Thiamine insufficiency causes Gastrointestinal Beriberi (bloating, abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea or constipation).  Thiamine is the B vitamin that runs out first because it can only be stored for two weeks.  We need more thiamine when we're sick or under emotional stress.  Gastric Beriberi is under recognised by doctors.  An Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test is more accurate than a blood test for thiamine deficiency, but the best way to see if you're low in thiamine is to take it and look for health improvement.  Don't take Thiamine Mononitrate because the body can't utilize it well.  Try Benfotiamine.  Thiamine is water soluble, nontoxic and safe even at high doses.  I thought it was crazy, too, but simple vitamins and minerals are important.  The eight B vitamins work together, so a B Complex, Benfotiamine,  magnesium and Vitamin D really helped get my body to start healing, along with the AIP diet.  Once you heal, you add foods back in, so the AIP diet is worth doing for a few months. I do hope you'll consider the AIP diet and Benfotiamine.

      Imemsm, Most of us have experienced discontinued, not currently available or products that suddenly become seasonal.   My biggest fear about relocating from Maryland to Florida 5 years ago, was being able to find gluten-free foods that fit my restricted diet.  I soon found out that the Win Dixie and Publix supper markets actually has 99% of their gluten-free foods tagged, next to the price.  The gluten-free tags opened up a  lot of foods that aren't actually marked gluten-free by the manufacture.  Now I only need to check for my other dietary restrictions.  Where my son lives in New Hartford, New York there's a Hannaford Supermarket that also has a gluten-free tag next to the price tag.  Hopefully you can locate a Supermarket within a reasonable travel distance that you can learn what foods to check out at a Supermarket close to you.  I have dermatitis herpetiformis too and I'm very sensitive to gluten and the three stores I named were very gluten-free friendly.  Good Luck
