So I'm making Pumpkin pie for thanksgiving. I don't need help with that recipe, but the next day I'm going to another thanksgiving with my friends. My good friend's boyfriend is gluten free as it rapes his stomach/digestive system. Because of that I want to make a gluten free pumpkin pie recipe.
Of course I know shit about gluten free. Any ideas? I saw almond meal at trader joes...would that be good for crust?
I have read that almond meal is better for quick rise stuff like muffins. They don't provide much structure.
Buuuut I found a gluten free crust recipe.

I love that it's supposedly like shortbread. What goes better with pumpkin pie than shortbread??? :D
However...WTF IS AMARANTH?
I use oat flour, straight-up sub for wheat.
Amaranth grain has been harvested since, like, farming began.
Oat flour would be simpler.
Now I want to make pumpkin pie with shortbread crust.
DOIT AND SEND ME A PIECE PLZ
is oat flour gluten free?
You should be making Pumpkin Cake.
Just sayin.
Pie is the superior dessert product.

Yes; that's what I use when I make pie for my gluten-intolerant friends.
Sometimes I mix it with buckwheat flour, which is cheap and good and not related to wheat at all.
