Gluten Free Apple Pie Food

GLUTEN FREE FRENCH APPLE PIE

Steps:

• FOR CRUST: Combine rice flour, tapioca flour, potato starch, salt, cinnamon and xanthan gum in a medium size bowl.
• Cut in the butter with pastry blender or two forks, until the mixture resembles large crumbs.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, apple cider vinegar and ice water.
• Gently stir the egg mixture into the flour, until it forms a ball.
• On a lightly rice-floured surface, knead the dough for 2-3 minutes. Form into a ball and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for one hour (or freeze now for later use).
• After removing from the fridge, knead the dough slightly, if needed.
• Roll out between two sheets of lightly floured parchment paper (I use an $8 plastic, zippered pie bag from King Arthur Flour) then transfer to 9-inch pie plate.
• Heat oven to 425°F.
• FOR FILLING: In large bowl, combine sugar, flour, nutmeg, cinnamon and salt. Add apples and gently stir to coat. Pour into pastry-lined pie plate.
• FOR TOPPING: In small bowl, combine flour and brown sugar. Cut in butter til mixture is crumbly. Sprinkle over filling.
• Bake uncovered for 40 minutes, then cover topping with aluminum foil and bake 10 minutes more.

GLUTEN FREE BROWN BUTTER APPLE HAND PIES

Steps:

• Pulse 2 1/2 cups flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, xanthan gum, and salt together in a food processor; add 3/4 cup butter, 2 eggs, and cold water. Blend until evenly mixed and crumbly but holds together when pinched; add more cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed. Form dough into a ball, place in a bowl, and chill for 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Mix apples, 1/4 cup white sugar, brown sugar, 2 tablespoons flour, lemon juice, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a large bowl.
• Melt 6 tablespoons butter in a saucepan over medium heat until foamy; continue cooking and stirring until butter is brown with a nutty aroma, 3 to 5 minutes. Pour browned butter over apple mixture; stir to coat.
• Roll dough out on a lightly floured surface to 1/8-inch thickness; cut into 4-inch circles. Whisk 1 egg and 1 tablespoon water together in a bowl; brush egg wash over each circle of dough. Spoon about 2 tablespoons apple filling on 1 half of each circle; fold the other half over the filling. Crimp the edges of each pie together using a fork. Place pies on a baking sheet; brush tops with egg wash and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon white sugar.
• Bake in the preheated oven until pies are lightly browned, about 30 minutes.

GLUTEN-FREE APPLE PIE

Steps:

• For the dough: Put the flour and salt into the bowl of a food processor and whirl it up until the flour is fully aerated and fluffy.
• Add the butter and cream cheese and pulse several times, until the butter and cream cheese are roughly broken down into pieces the size of lima beans. (They won't all be the same size.)
• Add 4 tablespoons cold water to the flour mixture and pulse several times again. The flour should be starting to clump up with the butter and cream cheese, which will look more distinct in the mixture now. Pinch a bit of the flour and fats together in your fingers. If they stick together, the dough is ready. Most of the time, it might take a couple more tablespoons of water to make the dough cohere. (The mixture should look like cheese curds. Don't add so much water that the dough comes together in one clump.)
• Dump the dough onto a piece of parchment paper, taking care to remove the blade of the food processor. Using the heel of your hand, press the curds of dough together to form a coherent pie dough. Fold the dough onto itself several times, like turning the pages of a book. This will make the final dough flakier. Shape the dough into one large ball, then cut it into 2 pieces and flatten each piece into a small disc. Wrap the discs of dough in plastic wrap and put them in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• For the pie: Meanwhile, put the apples, sugar, flour, cinnamon, salt and nutmeg into a large bowl and toss them together. Let the filling sit while the pie dough is chilling.
• Pull one of the discs of dough out of the refrigerator and put it on a piece of parchment paper. Gently flatten it just a touch. Put another piece of parchment paper on top and roll out the dough, moving the rolling pin in small increments, like moving around the face of a clock. When the dough is large enough to be just bigger than a 9-inch pie pan, peel off the top piece of parchment paper and flip the dough onto a pie pan. Peel off the parchment paper. If any pieces stick to the paper, don't worry; simply peel them off and pat them in place.
• Tumble the apple filling into the pie shell. Roll out the remaining disc of dough the same way and put it on top of the pie. Tuck the edges together and crimp them. Make 3 slits in the top of the pie for steam vents. Put the pie into the freezer, 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Put the pie onto the prepared baking sheet and bake 15 minutes, then drop the temperature to 375 degrees F and bake until the crust is warm and browned and the juices from the apples are oozing out of the pie, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
• Allow the pie to cool to room temperature before slicing into it, about 1 hour.

GLUTEN-FREE APPLE PIE

Steps:

• Set the oven to 150C
• To make the base: Blend the walnuts until there are no big chunks. Add the rest of the ingredients and blend until a dough like texture is created.
• Grease a 26 cm by 26cm baking pie dish that has a removable lid, fold out the base onto the pie tin evenly, making sure it covers the rim. (Place this to the side as you make the filling.)
• For the filling: Peel the pears and blend them with the chia seeds, lemon zest and honey/stevia. Leave this for 15 minutes to form a gel.
• Slice the apples thinly into quarter segments, cover the crust with half the apples. Dust half the cinnamon and ghee over the top.
• Spoon the pear and chia gel on top of the apple mixture and then place the rest of the sliced apples on top. Sprinkle the rest of the cinnamon, and ghee and place in the oven for 25-30 minutes.
• Once cooked to your desired crispness, top with fresh mint.
