Tomorrow I am going strawberry picking, but I need to find something to make the strawberries with! I am not a jam person. Anyone have a recipe for a gluten-free pie crust, so I can make a strawberry pie? Thanks!

While I absolutely love baking, this is totally cheating...

I get my gluten-free pie crusts at the Whole Foods bakery. They are absolutely delicious!! I use them for pies and quiches, and no one can tell the difference. It is actually the best part of the pie/quiche, it is that yummy!!

But, if you do find a good recipe, I would like to know too :)

I normally use the Gluten Free Pantry Pie crust mix. :) It's very good.

This recipe Open Original Shared Link using an entire bag of Mi-del Gluten-free Ginger Snaps. I am not a skilled baker, so mine always came out messy, but we didn't mind.

Pie Crust:

1 cup gluten free oats

1 cup finely chopped walnuts

1/8 teaspoon cinnamon

1/8 teaspoon salt

1/3 cup honey

1 tablespoon maple syrup

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

2. Mix all ingredients. Spray pie pan. Pour mixture into pie pan.

3. Spray fingers and press mixture into pan. Spray top of mixture.

4. Bake for 5 minutes.

Crumb Crust:

1/2 cup ground walnuts

3 tablespoons apple juice concentrate

2 tablespoons olive oil

1. Combine all ingredients.

2. Spray pie pan. Press mixture into 9 inch pie pan.

Bette Hagman's Vinegar pastry always works for me and seems totally normal to non-gluten-free people. It makes enough for two crusts, so you can freeze the half you don't need and successfully thaw it months later, or you can roll it out and bake pieces on a cookie sheet, then spread with jam and pretend you have Pop-Tarts!

1c rice flour

3/4 c tapioca flour

3/4 c cornstarch

1 teaspoon xanthan gum

3/4 t salt

1 T sugar

Mix those together in a bowl, then cut in:

3/4 c shortening

Mix in:

1 egg, lightly beaten

1T cider vinegar

Then start adding ice water, 1 T at a time, and toss together with a fork, until all of it has been moistened enough to keep together in a ball when you squeeze it in your hand. Split it in half and wrap each half in plastic wrap and refrigerate 30 min (or skip this if you're in a hurry). You can also freeze at this point. Roll out each half in whatever way works best for you to prevent sticking. I use a few drops of water sprinkled on the counter to hold a piece of wax paper, sprinkle rice flour on the wax paper, and use plenty of rice flour on the dough and rolling pin. Then I can just put the pie pan face down over the rolled dough, slip my hand under the wax paper, and flip the whole thing over to get the dough into the pan. Shape the edge, poke with a fork all over if not filling, and bake at 450 for 10-12 minutes, or follow the directions for a filled pie. Don't forget to bake and eat all the scraps you trimmed off :P .

My guess is that you could substitute any decent flour blend for the mix of flours above, although I haven't tried it with a bean flour mix.

I use Bette Hagman's recipe also. It comes out flaky and delicious.

I can't tell you how happy I am to find these recipes. A couple of hours ago I ate a piece of the blueberry pie I made on Saturday because I just couldn't stand it anymore. My stomach is hurting and I feel so bloated. I need to get out of my denial stage...

Thank you all for sharing.

      Thank you for saying that. That doctor diagnosed me with IBS with no follow-up so the relationship is already concluded. If I pursue diagnosis further I'll request someone else.

      Hey everyone. Thanks again for your suggestions. I wanted to give an update and ask for some follow-up suggestions from you all.  So I did go through all of my food items and stopped eating things that were “gluten free” and switched over to the “certified gluten free” ones (the ones with the g symbol). I also stayed away from restaurants except once and there I ordered something raw vegan and gluten free hoping for the best. I also stayed away from oats and soy and dairy. I've also been increasing my vitamin B complex. I've been doing this for about 12 days and while I know that's not that long, I'm still getting sick. Sometimes having diarrhea. Sometimes getting headaches and having necklaces. Sometimes waking up feeling horrible brain fog. I did go to my GI doc and they did a blood test and found my TtG-IgA was in the negative range (and a lower number than I'd had before). I also had normal levels of CRP. My stool showed no elevation of calprotectin and no pathogens. My GI doc said the symptoms could be related to a gluten exposure or to IBS. I'm keeping a food diary to see if I can narrow down whats going on. I know I have good days and bad days and Im trying to isolate what makes a good day versus a bad day. Generally so far it looks like if it eat something super cautious like raw vegetables that I chopped myself into a salad and almonds, im fine but if I eat something more complex including, say, chicken and rice (even if packaged and certified gluten free or made by me with gluten free ingredients), it may not go so well. I may end up with either a headache, neck tension, brain fog, and/or diarrhea that day or the morning after. Any other thoughts or suggestions? I am planning to start tracking my foods again but I wanted to do it in more detail this time (maybe down to the ingredient level) so are there any common ingredients that celiacs have issues with that you all know of that I should track? I've got dairy, oats, soy, eggs, corn, peas, lentils on my “watch list”. Other things I should add? I'm hoping if I track for another two weeks I can maybe pin down some sensitivities. Appreciate the help and tips. Thank you so much!!

      "My GI doctor ruled out gluten celiac entirely because I didn't have skin rash." Are you serious? The overwhelming majority of people with confirmed celiac disease do not have the rash. It's called dermatitis herpetiformis. It is found in only about 10-15% of those with celiac disease: https://www.celiac.ca/gluten-related-disorders/dermatitis-herpetiformis/ If your GI doc is operating on that piece of misinformation, I would start looking for a new GI doc because I wouldn't trust him/her in general.

      Thank you so much for your informative reply. My GI doctor ruled out gluten celiac entirely because I didn't have skin rash. I had a histamine response to wheat and milk by scratch test by an allergist. I'm not always symptomatic but the older I get the worse it gets. I've found through trial and error that I can react to all grains. Buckwheat and corn included. I tolerate some rice but I wouldn't want to eat it every day. Potato is pretty good for me but I can't eat it every day either. I compromise with squash. I tolerate it well. The Best I feel is while fasting. When I'm in pain and discomfort it's easy to fast even long term, it helps. The problem I'm having is I'm great with my diet for 3-6 months then I start to cheat again. When I don't get immediate symptoms I get this foolish false security. I react then go back to my diet. Rinse and repeat. I suppose discipline is my real issue. I'm very tired of perusing a diagnosis. The constant gaslighting and dismissal is exhausting. Thanks for your suggestion of the autoimmune protocol. I will give it a try. Perhaps the guidelines will help me to navigate better.   Thanks again.

      This isn't the first potential celiac disease treatment in the pipeline that failed. There have been others...
