YIELD: 2 STANDARD-SIZE PIE CRUSTS, OR ENOUGH FOR 1 LATTICE-TOPPED OR COVERED PIE
This piecrust is a staple in this chapter. With a flaky, buttery consistency, it truly does make a pie stand out!
Directions
In a large bowl, whisk together the superfine brown rice flour, white rice flour, potato starch, tapioca flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, and sugar.
Drop the margarine into the flour mixture by tablespoons.
Use fingers or a pastry blender to quickly mix into an even crumble.
Using a large fork, stir in the lemon juice and cold water until a soft dough forms.
If the dough seems too sticky, add a touch more brown rice flour.
Wrap in plastic wrap and chill in the freezer for 15 minutes, or refrigerator for at least 1 hour before using.
Keeps tightly covered in refrigerator for up to 1 week, and frozen for up to 3 months.
