MIL made us a gluten-free pie today from the pie crust recipe in The Gluten-Free Gourmet (Comfort Foods) by Bette Hagman and it was amazing!!! The crust is flaky and SO yummy!!! Even picky DS liked it and said it was better than "normal" apple pie! He wants a pumpkin pie next! LOL!

So, if you are looking for a good pie crust, this one rocks!! I was very impressed. :)

Glad it was so good!

Sounds yummy, perfect for fall apples. I roll the dough out with mine and let my daughter make shapes out of cookie cutters on the top of the upper pie crust.

Which recipe was it? I have the book and I'd be glad to post it.

Im assuming this is the one :)

Bette hagman's pie crust recipe (featherlight vinegar pastry)

2 1/2 cups featherlight mix

1 rounded teaspoon xantham gum

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon sugar

3/4 cup shortening

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

1/4 cup liquid egg substitue or 1 egg beaten

4 tablespoons ice water

Sweet rice flour for rolling

Blend flour mix, xantham gum, salt and sugar. Cut in shortening until coarse crumbs form. In a small nowl beat the vinegar and egg together.

Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients with a fork and keep blending 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 teh dough in half and roll out on waxed paper dusted with sweet rice flour. Place in a 9 inch pie tin. For a baked single crust, prick the pastry with a fork on sides and bottom. Bake at 450 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes. Makes enough pastry for a 9 inch 2-crust pie or 2 pastry shells.

Optional- Add 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon and 1/4 tsp nutmeg to dry ingredients. Substitute orange juice for the ice water.

Featherlight mix recipe-

rice flour 3 cups

tapioca flour 3 cups

cornstarch 3 cups

potato flour 3 tbsps

Kim- I hope you dont mind I posted it :)

Thanks!!! I don't mind at all! I have been very busy this week, so am just now checking in. That does look like the recipe (MIL still has my book), but I thought it said apple cider vinegar instead of rice, I could be wrong. I know that Bette has this recipe in several of her books, though, so she may have switched it up.

I still am amazed with how awesome this crust is. Even 3 days later it is still awesome!!

Hmm, you know I looked to see if there was a variation for this recipe and couldnt find one in this book (2004 published) but I do remember a pastry recipe that had apple cider vinegar in it. I do have another one of her books and annalise roberts so it could be either one also. The only other one I noticed in here was a cereal recipe, a nut recipe, and a graham cracker recipe. Either way I cant wait to try it :)

Now I am curious! LOL! I'll let you know when I get the book from her. :)

      Is this the same restaurant? https://www.facebook.com/TheHappyTartFallsChurch/ Is it too late to take this up with your credit card company? Normally you have a few months to do a chargeback with them. It seems very odd that they are taking this approach with someone who is likely to be a regular customer--not a good business-minded way of handling things!

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.

      Welcome to the forum. Is the nausea associated with eating certain foods, or anything else in particular?  Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months.

      Absolutely my point with Kerrigan, the owner. She stood to secure many years of faithful patronage by simply inviting us in for a pastry or lunch. Or by simply producing another $50 e-card based on trust. We would have been highly satisfied. We are limited to a few restaurants in the area, and that would have been one. It was very disappointing, esp to my wife, to realize we can't patronize the place anymore.

      You would think any business would see the wisdom of honoring a $50 gift certificate on the basis of customer satisfaction alone, apart from any questions about software glitches.
