Gluten Free Dutch Apple Pie

Slice of Gluten Free Dutch Apple Pie

Out of all the gluten free pies I have made, I would have to say this gluten free Dutch apple pie is my favorite. It has a unique crust plus a crumble topping, which both create texture, sweetness, and flavor! It’s the best of both worlds. Apple filling is my favorite of all. I love cinnamon and what goes better with it than apples? Okay, cinnamon bread comes to mind, but that’s only good with tons of butter. Meanwhile, enjoy this recipe!

Gluten Free Tart Crust Using Almond Flour

Gluten Free Almond Tart Crust

If you are watching your carb intake, using almond flour is a great way to cut back in addition to adding flavor. This gluten free tart crust is the perfect compliment to sweet or savory fillings. Avoid starch-filled crusts. Try using almond flour instead. This recipe is also egg- and gum-free. It’s delicious. I use it to make my Gluten Free Apple Almond Custard Tart and my creamy potato, onion and bacon tart.

Gluten Free Apple Tart Made with Puff Pastry

Gluten Free Apple Tart with French Vanilla Ice Cream

If you miss traditional pastry, you have to try this  gluten free apple tart recipe. Plus, the filling is so easy. It uses my amazing gluten free puff pastry recipe. I don’t usually toot my own horn, but when I tried this pastry dough for the first time, I felt like I died and went to heaven. It had been 10 years since I had good pastry. I’ve included a link to my dairy free version as well. Enjoy! Continue reading “Gluten Free Apple Tart Made with Puff Pastry”

Mini Fried Gluten Free Pies: Sweet or Savory (Dairy-Free)

When you just cannot deal with rolling a double gluten free pie crust, these mini fried gluten free pies are ideal. However, unlike pie crust, they are crunchy. You may fill them with sweet or savory fillings. For my test recipe I just used Comstock fruit pie filling. Both Comstock and Wilderness brands are gluten free. These little gems are similar to empanadas (Spanish pies), but instead of baking them, you fry them. When empanadas are made in smaller sizes to serve as appetizers, such as these, they are named tapas. You may wish to check out my savory gluten free empanada filling (the crust on that recipe is a traditional gluten free pie crust), or my homemade sauteed apples for a healthier filling, if you’re not a quick open-a-can type of person.

Gluten Free Raw Pumpkin Cheesecake Recipe

Douglas McNish makes a mean Raw Vegan Gluten Free Cheesecake. I started with his recipe and by the time I was finished, it developed into this lovely raw pumpkin cheesecake recipe. You will need a high speed blender to make this. There is no getting around it. If you are not fortunate enough to own one, note that there are lower cost alternatives to the VitaMix brand. Meanwhile, raw pumpkin cheesecake is topped with raw caramel sauce, whipped nut cream, and cocoa nibs. I’ve included all of the recipes including how to make raw vanilla extract “liquid”. Enjoy!

Gluten Free Pumpkin Pie Recipe

A gluten free pumpkin pie recipe with a traditional filling. The use of both granulated sugar and brown sugar create a caramelized flavor that is hard to resist. Top it with homemade whipped cream or a gluten free ready-made brand such as Cabot. For a dairy-free topping, try the crunchy praline topping. The crust tastes amazing, as well, and is fairly easy to handle and roll. Continue reading “Gluten Free Pumpkin Pie Recipe”
