Healthy Pie Crust (Easy)

🧂 Ingredients

• 1 and ½ cups oat flour*
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar*

  optional
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 large egg
• ¼ cup olive oil*

  more if needed

Instructions

• 1 In a large bowl, whisk together the oat flour, sugar, and salt.
• 2 In a medium-size bowl, whisk together the egg and olive oil.
• 3 Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and stir it together using a fork
  until the mixture comes together. It may take a minute or two, and be sure to
  scrape the bottom of the bowl. It should look like clumps of wet sand.
• 4 Using your hands, form a ball with the dough and flatten it slightly so it's
  shaped like a disk. If you find your dough is too dry to form a ball, add a
  little more olive oil, one teaspoon at a time. If your dough is too wet,
  sprinkle a little more oat flour.
• 5 Transfer the dough to a piece of wax or parchment paper. Using a rolling pin,
  roll the dough out into an even circle. Start in the center and work your way
  out, turning the wax paper. It doesn't have to be a perfect circle; just be sure
  you have a ½-1 inch overhang from your pie plate. Place your pie plate on top
  for reference. If your dough sticks to your rolling pin, spray it with non-stick
  spray.
• 6 Once it's the correct diameter, invert your pie plate on top of the dough and
  gently slide one hand underneath the wax paper. Use the other hand to hold the
  pie plate and flip the plate so that the wax paper is on top. Remove the wax
  paper, and now the dough should be inside your pie plate.
• 7 Press the dough into the pie plate and around the sides. The dough is easy to
  work with. If a piece falls off, simply patch it back, and you may need to even
  out the sides by transferring the dough to where it's needed.
• 8 Flute the edge if desired or you can do a simple fork edging. Here is a great
  tutorial on ways to decorate pie crust edges.

  For no-bake pies: Poke the bottom of the crust with a fork a few times, and bake
  it at 400°F for 10 minutes.
