Pie Dough GF/Vegan/Top 9 Free
This allergen-friendly pie dough is flaky, buttery (without the butter!), and perfectly balanced with just a touch of sweetness. Made with Spectrum Organic Shortening and a custom pastry blend, it rolls out beautifully and bakes up golden and tender every time. One of the best parts? You can make the dough up to a month ahead of time! Just wrap it tightly in wax paper or plastic wrap and store it in the fridge until you're ready to use it β no thawing required. Itβs the ultimate time-saver for stress-free baking days.
Pie Dough:
1/4 cup + 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
2/3 cup water
2 1/4 teaspoons xanthan gum
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon egg replacer powder
3 cups + 2 tablespoons pastry blend (or buy it here!)
Prepare the Dough (Up to one month before needed):
In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream Spectrum Organic Shortening and sugar together on medium speed for about 2 minutes.
Turn mixer to low and slowly add the water.
Once water is incorporated, add the xanthan gum, salt, and egg replacer. Mix about 1 minute.
Gradually add the pastry blend, about 1/2 cup at a time, until a soft dough forms.
Remove the dough from the bowl, wrap tightly in wax paper or plastic wrap, and refrigerate overnight at minimum.
