Almond Macaroon Pie Crust
« on: July 08, 2010, 03:13:49 PM »
Got this from the Bob's Red Mill website. This crust works WAY better than my previous almond crust that uses only butter.

    * 1 cup  Almond Meal/Flour  
    * 6 drops FAT TO SKINNY Zero Sweetener
    * 1 Egg, beaten  
    * 1/2 tsp Almond or Vanilla Extract  
    * 1/4 tsp Sea Salt  
    * Dash Cinnamon or Nutmeg  

Directions
Preheat oven to 325°F. Grease and flour a 9-inch glass pie plate or tart pan.  Rice or sorghum flour works well. In a mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients. Spread the almond mixture into the pie plate and press lightly (with moist fingertips) to form a crust.

Bake the crust for 10 minutes. Using a silicone or vinyl spatula, lightly press down any high puffy areas. Resume baking for another 2 to 5 minutes until the crust is firm. Place on a wire rack and press down to flatten if needed. Cool before filling. The crust will get crisper as it cools.

I am sitting in the hair salon under a dryer, reading this post and drooling! I hope I don't get electrocuted before I can use this recipe.
