Ingredients

  • 1 stick cold butter diced and placed into the freezer for 5-10 minutes
  • 1 cup GF flour blend I use Bob's Redmill 1 for 1
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 tsp course salt
  • 1-3 tbs ice water

Instructions

  • Cut up cold butter into small pieces and place in freezer for 5-10 minutes.
    In a food processor, pulse flour, and salt until combined.
    Add butter and pulse until mixture has no large pieces of butter remaining.
    Add egg and 1 tablespoon ice water, then pulse until well-combined and dough holds together when squeezed. If it doesn't hold together well, add a little more ice water.
    Roll into a ball and place in the fridge or freezer for 5-10 minutes.
    Preheat oven to 350. Roll out dough to about 1/8 inch thick and place into a pie pan. Cut off excess dough, and form with fingers or with fork. 
    Pre-bake for about 20 minutes before filling.

Notes

Use very cold butter. Place in freezer 5-10 minutes before using.
You can make this ahead of time and keep it in the fridge for a few days, or freeze it for a few weeks.
