I make my pie crusts with almond flour. Started to do it for my late
husband who was a diabetic. I still see no reason not to make the
almond flour pie crusts. Saves some calories and a lot of carbs from an
already carb-laden meal.

Almond Flour Pie Crust

Recipe By : Janet Wilder
Serving Size : 8
Categories : pies

Amount Measure Ingredient
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 1/2 cups almond meal
3 tablespoons melted butter
3 tablespoons Splenda or sugar

Heat oven to 350 F. Melt the butter (if the pie pan is microwave safe,
melt the butter in it) and mix the ingredients up in the pan and pat
into place with your fingertips.

Bake for about 10 minutes until the crust is beginning to brown. After 8
minutes, check every minute or so, because once it starts to brown it
goes quickly.


NOTES : This is a very easy pie crust to make. This works best for a 9"
pie pan. If you have an 8" one, the crust will be a little thicker, or
you can cut back on the ingredients a bit.
