  • 1/2 cup white rice flour
  • 1/4 cup garbanzo and fava flour
  • 1/4 cup sweet white sorghum flour
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 egg
  • 3/4 cup canola oil
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/2 teaspoon cider vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons xanthan gum
  • 1 teaspoon guar gum
  • 1/3 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1/4 cup sugar

Filling

  • 5 cups chopped peeled apples (5 medium)
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg, if desired
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons water

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 350°F. Spray bottom and sides of 9-inch glass pie plate with cooking spray (without flour). In medium bowl, mix all flours, 1 tablespoon sugar and 1/2 teaspoon salt; set aside.
  • 2
    In food processor, place egg, oil, 1/4 cup water, the vinegar, xanthan gum and guar gum. Cover; process 2 minutes. Add flour mixture. Cover; process 1 minute or until well mixed. Place 1 cup of dough in medium bowl. Stir in walnuts and 1/4 cup sugar; set aside. Press remaining dough (about 2 cups) in bottom and up side of pie plate.
  • 3
    In 3-quart saucepan, place apples, 1/2 cup sugar, 1/4 cup water, 1/8 teaspoon salt, the cinnamon and nutmeg. Heat to boiling over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • 4
    In small bowl, mix cornstarch and 2 tablespoons water until smooth. Add to apple mixture; cook and stir about 1 minute or until thickened. Pour filling into crust. Crumble walnut dough evenly over filling.
  • 5
    Bake 55 to 60 minutes or until crust is medium brown and filling is bubbly. Cool at least 1 hour before serving.

  • Cooking the apples on the stovetop and thickening with cornstarch before adding the filling to the pie ensures that the apples are soft and the filling is evenly thickened.
  • Most grocery stores feature a gluten free section. If your store doesn’t carry these flours, ask them to order them.
