This is amazing! I always struggle to get my lower crust to brown and cook through and now I’m wondering if it is the ceramic pie plates I’ve always used!
Yes! And I forgot to say this in the video… but never put the pie pan on a cookie sheet or put a cookie sheet on the rack below. It acts as a shield and prevents this great browning!
I can’t wait to make this! Several weeks ago I made 4 portions of your apple pie filling from the freezer book! I wanted a good pie crust recipe - as a beginning pie maker I don’t really have one. This looks amazing and you explained it so well!
I’ve made multiple pie crusts over the years and I’ve never gotten one that I would consider “perfect”. I used your tutorial and my family and I were thrilled with the results! Absolutely delicious and I love the idea of using wrap and the lamenting was definitely worth it! Thanks!
Thank you so much for a detailed video and explanation. Gluten free pie crust has always intimidated me so I have not had pie in probably 15 years. Do you think it would be possible to freeze the filling separate and crust dough disks for later use? Acre Homestead has me all obsessed with making extra for the freezer.
i do not have a metal pie dish, do you think it will still turn out crispy enough in a glass dish or would attempting to make it in my cast iron pan be a better option?
I've had some issues with the pie dough, it started completely falling apart after I rolled it out. The lattice slices kept breaking clean off when I peeled them back. I'm wondering if you have any insights on what I did wrong? It's my first time making something gluten free so I'm a bit out of my depth 😅
Thanks for the response! I did follow it perfectly so I'll try adding more water next time. It turned out absolutely delicious despite the dough struggles and I'll be making it again very soon for my gluten free friends 😊
I don't like pie crust. Until I do. I'm not sure what in particular I am looking for, but when a crust is good, my God it hits in ways I can't imagine. Making pie crust has always challenged me. I'm a very active baker, and pie crust is my Everest. I just can't seem to get it right. I'm looking at the effort for this method and will declare it worth it if the crust is amazing, but it's hard to get going knowing there is a risk I won't like it either. I wish there was a money back guarantee.😅
Hi I need to make it gluten free, i saw your notes but i am not sure what it means use a "cup for cup" type of flour? What is that? I am in the uk, mayne we use different terms
That is any gluten free flour blend that is formulated and meant to be used as a 1:1 substitute for regular white (wheat) flour. Here in the US most of those are a mixture of several different types of gluten-free grains/starches (like rice flour, millet flour, potato starch, tapioca starch).
@@wholefedhomestead ha yes here too, but they never say 1 cupt to 1 cup, i do not know amy of ours that has that descriptin, but i use Dove Freee plain white flour usually which is GLUTEN FREE Plain White Flour Ingredients: flour blend (rice, potato, tapioca, maize, buckwheat).
If you've a complete novice like me - make sure you add enough water (despite the warnings). Once I started layering, I was dealing with chunks. Perhaps better to add too much water, resulting in a tougher crust, rather than no usable pie crust.
I was always afraid of over working the dough but I can see that really is not quite as easy as I thought... my issues probably come from adding too much water.
What an incredibley well done video!!! 👏🏻 I’ve made many a pies but I’m so excited to try this. Will tag you on instagram in the next couple weeks I’m sure!

Ahhh another great tip! I do that all the time to prevent it spilling on the oven!
@brennap520 you can put foil, or buy an oven liner sheet, on the bottom, below the heat source, if there is a lot of bubble over.
Excellent tutorial! Followed along and my first ever homemade pie turned out phenomenal. Thanks so much for sharing!
Love hearing that!!! 🥰🥰
❤ OMGoodness ❣ I am so anxious to try this recipe ❣ Thank you very much for uploading your recipe and techniques ❣

Do you think it would be possible to freeze the filling separate and crust dough disks for later use? Acre Homestead has me all obsessed with making extra for the freezer.
Yes! This is actually the pie filling (well, pretty close to it) from my book, Freeze Fresh. It freezes beautifully! And crust can be frozen too.
@@wholefedhomestead Thank you so much!
What temp do you bake it at?
Thank you so much, I can't wait to make these
Hope you enjoy!
Perfection pie 🥧
I can’t wait to give your recipe a try!!! It looks amazing!
Thanks! 💗💗
Thank you for the recipe! Can it be adjusted for non-dairy butter? If any suggestions, I would really appreciate! Thank you again!
I’ve never worked with non-dairy butter, sorry. I’m sure it won’t behave quite the same though.
thank you!
Is it possible to substitute the butter for vegan butter to make it dairy free? Or would this comprise the whole recipe
I haven't tried that, sorry. I'm sure it wouldn't be the same... I'm not sure if it would work or be a disaster.
Looks delightful 🍎
Thank you 😋
i do not have a metal pie dish, do you think it will still turn out crispy enough in a glass dish or would attempting to make it in my cast iron pan be a better option?
A glass pie pan still works good!

If you followed the recipe ingredients exactly, including the xanthan gum then I'm almost certain you just needed to add a little bit more water. 😊👍🏻
Thanks for the response! I did follow it perfectly so I'll try adding more water next time. It turned out absolutely delicious despite the dough struggles and I'll be making it again very soon for my gluten free friends 😊
Can this apple pie filling be made and then frozen for later use?
Yes actually! (Full instructions for that in my book.)

Good luck 😂😂
Looks so good! Definitely will try this recipe. What size pan did you use?
Thanks! A standard 9-inch pan 👍🏻
Wheres the lists of instructions?
Does this recipe call for salted or unsalted butter? Thanks for the awesome recipe!
I usually use salted but it really doesn’t matter

Hopefully will work ok
Can you grate the butter into the flour and then shingle it in?
No, I wouldn’t do that. It would be way too small pieces and you wouldn’t get the flakiness.
If you've a complete novice like me - make sure you add enough water (despite the warnings). Once I started layering, I was dealing with chunks.
Perhaps better to add too much water, resulting in a tougher crust, rather than no usable pie crust.
Can I freeze this crust and thaw it at a later date? Maybe you mentioned 🙈
You can, yes
What brand do you recommend for butter?
I usually use a Rumiano, but any European style is good!
My crust shrank a lot. But it was good...may add sugar next time. 😋
I was always afraid of over working the dough but I can see that really is not quite as easy as I thought... my issues probably come from adding too much water.
Yes! I still try to work it as little as possible… but it takes the rolling and folding pretty well.
Looks incredible Crystal! I’m making your gf version for thanksgiving 🤩
Thanks! 💗💗

Pie fluting.
Is this really award winning? Has this recipe competed at a contest?
It has, yes! I’m the reigning apple pie champion of my town.
