Gluten Free Tart Crust Recipe by Angela Roberts

Since I first published this post, I’ve made a lot of gluten free recipes, pies, tarts.

I have been eating gluten free for almost three years and it has made a huge difference for me regarding joint pain.

I made a decision when I went gluten free that I was NOT going to buy processed gluten free products, because for the most part I don’t purchase processed gluten products. I wanted to find my way with satisfaction from starchy foods like potatoes and rice, if I needed more than protein and veggies.

I hit a craving when I had freshly picked tomatoes from my garden and I wanted a tomato tart. I broke down and purchased gluten free flour at Trader Joe’s and went to work making a tart crust that would hold together enough to form a tomato galette. The results were very good, probably better than I expected, as long as didn’t expect the same texture as a crust with gluten which is what holds a dough together..

Leaning from my technique for a regular crust, I learned a few tips in baking with a gluten free flour. The lack of gluten leaves the dough vulnerable because there is nothing to hold it together. Yet, with a little practice, a good pie crust can still be made. That’s where xanthan gum comes in handy. If you are using a gluten free flour that doesn’t have xanthan gum, I suggest you use it. It will help hold your dough together.

If you are making a sweet tart or pie go to this recipe from the American Test Kitchen, which is exceptional for desserts.

Tips for Gluten Free Tart Crust

  1. Use freezing cold butter.
  2. Use a food processor, but don’t over process the butter. Just like I make my regular pie dough, I count to ten and stop, as the flour and butter are mixing on low setting.
  3. Use iced cold water, but after 1/4 cup, go slowly. The biggest mistake people make is adding in too much water, which makes a tough pie crust.
  4. Even though there is no gluten to relax, resting the pie dough in the refrigerator for at least an hour or longer makes it easier to work with.
  5. Use floured parchment paper to roll the dough out. You will need to put in the middle of two pieces of dough.
  6. Know that how you roll it and fold it is how you will see the finished product. Unlike regular pie dough, if you put a finger in it, you’ll see that indentation, so realize what you see before baking is what you’ll see after baking is done.
  7. Add a little sugar to the dough. Don’t ask me why, but it tastes good, even for a savory crust.

Make a tart, a galette and fill it with anything you wish. For the tomato tart (recipe coming) I used fresh San Marzano tomatoes, a little bit of olive oil and some basil, baking for about 30 minutes or until it was crispy underneath.

I’ll give you a more complete recipe for the tomato tart in the coming days. In the meantime, it would work well with this goat cheese tomato tart.

I now have a gluten free category, so take a look and I’ve started a gluten free Pin Board. You’ll get to see so much more on instagram, and I’d love to connect with you there.

Gluten Free Tart Crust

A gluten free tart crust, good for any pie, tart or galette.
Prep Time1 hr 30 mins
Total Time1 hr 30 mins
Course: Pie Tart
Cuisine: American
Servings: 8
Author: Angela Roberts

Ingredients

  • 2 cups gluten free flour
  • 1 teaspoon xanthan gum if you flour doesn't already have it
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons sugar can decrease or leave out
  • 12 tablespoons butter cut in cubes and frozen
  • 1 egg add if you are making a tart
  • 1/2 cup of ice cold water may not use it all
  • extra flour for rolling
  • parchment paper

Instructions

  • Mix flour, salt and sugar.
  • Add butter to the mixture in the food processor set on low and count to ten slowly. Stop.
  • Add egg.
  • Begin adding water, turn machine on and only add enough water to hold the mixture together. Do not make too wet.
  • Dump into a plastic ziplock bag. Pat together to form ball of dough.
  • If it's not coming together add a small amount of cold water, no more than a tablespoon.
  • Refrigerate for at least one hour. You can also freeze at this point.
  • When you are ready to use, then roll between two pieces of parchment paper that has been floured. I use a cold stainless steel rolling pin or a long french tapered pin. It may be a little sticky. Add flour to your hands. Peel off one sheet of paper. Continue with your recipe.
  • If you are making a pie with a crust, you might be better off covering the pie with separate pieces of dough as I've done in this recipe, using a cookie cutter.

    So, if making crust for tart do you roll the crust to fit the pan or fit into tart pan by pressing the dough into the tart pan and up the sides to fit? Dumb question🤔?? Thanks!

    So you don’t need xantham gum with this flour? I just bought some myself. Is it like cup 4 cup, Thomas Keller’s flour? Only way cheaper!

    I’m with you on this one Angela. I have a friend with a daughter who are both coeliac so I like to experiment as well (using real, natural foods). Love the tart…so simple and I bet absolutely delicious!

    I, as you know, am always noodling around with gluten free baking/recipes just out of curiosity for the most part and to prove that you can make good recipes using gluten free flour, cornmeal, etc. It all started with me doing recipe testing of gluten free baked goods for a cooking magazine a couple of years ago. At the time you had to literally purchase about 5 to 10 various items just to make a baking flour that was gluten free. Now so many companies are making good gluten free flours such as King Arthur, Trader Joe’s, Bob’s Red Mill and Bisquik has even gotten on the band wagon. I do not purchase many gluten free products, but The Turnip Truck here in Nashville does have some really great gluten free pre-made products that I use simply because I like them. They have a line of Quinoa pastas that are fantastic (I have tried all the others and they are not so great) and they have a frozen pizza dough that is gluten free and really good. Gluten free has come a long way in the past few years. I have a doctor acquaintance who lost about 12 lbs in two months just going gluten free! If for no other reason that is a mighty fine incentive. Your tomato tart is fabulous looking by the way.

TUSCAN SHRIMP - You can find tuscan everything on Pinterest. Tuscan chicken, Tuscan salmon and my Tuscan shrimp. They all have one thing in common….a whole cup of heavy cream. I decided to slim it down a bit by adding only a splash of cream, and using a thickening gel made from xanthan gum, (recipe below)  and some broth. I spiced it up with some Trader Joe’s  bomba sauce, ❤️👩🏻‍🍳which in case you haven’t noticed, I put it in EVERYTHING. Recipe coming soon.

I love Agatha Raisin, Deadwater fell, Doc Martin, Delicious, Nothing Trivial, 800 Words, The Heart Guy, Murdock Mysteries, A Place to Call Home, Poirot, Mount Pleasant, Father Brown. 
On Brit Box, the funniest show (and uplifting) I’ve ever seen is Mrs. Brown’s Boys. HIGHLY recommend that but beware of some swear words. (It’s Irish)

Taco Tuesday, even if you’re on keto! At first glance you would think you can’t eat this on a low carb diet. Think again. Fish fried with pork panko, sitting in my grain free tortillas (which you can buy in my bakery by the way). You can use a food processor to transform pork rinds into pork panko. I found the pork panko at costco (affordable, finally and they are life changing for a grain free diet).

We cannot control the crazy in our wold right now, but we can control what we eat. This spicy salmon is keto friendly with ground pork rinds giving crunch. Not only seriously delicious, but Omega 3 good for you. 
I choose healthy but I also choose pleasurable food. This is placed atop cauliflower rice and some nice white wine wouldn’t hurt either.  The spicy comes from Trader Joe’s Italian Bomba Hot Pepper Sauce made with fermented  Calabrian chili peppers. It’s my new go to. EASY Recipe coming soon.

My most popular blog post is this New York Strip Steak, 185,000 times this year! And, I get the nicest comments about my method. It’s a pan sear and then to oven recipe, but the tips are what bring success. It’s not a reverse sear, which I’ve done with some other steaks, because I like that method with really thick steak. Strip steaks tend to be thinner and the sear and roast method keeps my steak medium rare. Salt and Pepper are my only seasonings…Maybe a bit of butter and thyme. #linkinprofile https://spinachtiger.com/new-york-strip-steak-recipe/

Tips for the Perfect Steak

* Salt the steak 24 hours in advance. It goes into the meat overnight, adds moisture and enhances flavor
* Don’t cover steaks in the fridge. The outside of the steak should be dry if you want to sear them. Put them on a rack so both sides dry.
* Make sure the steak is dry, before searing. When ready to cook, I used to think my steak needed to come down to room temperature, but I now find that I get a better sear  with a cold steak, as long as the steak is dry. It’s the water that comes out of the steak that prevents that nice sear, also known as the mallaird effect.
* Start with a very hot  cast iron pan.
* Do not add oil until pan is hot.
* Use a round grill press, if you can, but no worries if you don’t have one.

Happy New Year! Fingers crossed🤞🏼. Prayers said. 🙏🏻Celebrating today with carnitas and a black eyed peas dip. 👩🏻‍🍳Lucky black eyed peans mean prosperous. Eating pork is also something about pigs rooting forward. Growing up we ate pork and sauerkraut every New Years. 🥳Today it’s a little bit more modern. The black eyed peas is coupled with black beans, pickled red onion from @thekitchn, pickled jalapeño, cilantro, various bell pepper, lime juice avocado and plenty of salt. You must have the salt to awaken and balance the vinegar. Since last week’s Nashville bombing, my appetite was meh. Today is a new year and I’ve invited company and look forward to all the good every year has, no matter what. Helmet of salvation beats this earth stuff any day! (Recipe will come to the blog this week). SpinachTiger dot com reached 12 years!

Cheeseball and Peaches  have so enjoyed the lockdown this year! This is a rare moment when they are actually cuddling together. They cuddle people more. They have the large deck outside to roam. They race around chasing each other in the middle of the night and for them life is wonderful. Reflecting on the past year, I’m truly an optimist, even in 2020.  Many good things happened, shadowed by Covid fallout some because of Covid. The biggest down for me personally was the lack of adventure, connection, parties, dining out, inviting people over, talking to my customers face to face. These are not shallow things. They are the things that boost the immune system and prolong life. Bread and water shared with people trumps a huge feast eaten alone. So my happiest times this year have been with people I love and the getaway at my friend’s farm. Getting OUTSIDE without a mask, without fear has meant everything. The joy of the Lord is my strength and I pray for a lot of JOY for 2021, for as a believer, it’s never pitch dark.

How warped time is now. Three days ago, bombing in Nashville. FBI says solved. Life goes on. Power restored. Went to my usual Monday morning workout. HOWEVER, my brain and heart can’t catch up this fast. Taking a day to chill, process, and look at the big fat year ahead. Bakery owner, full-time food blogger. Thinking about what new doors to open, what doors I should shut. I’ll leave you with this. 2020 started off amazing! I scheduled my first bakery classes and was so gleeful to be able to make one of my dreams come true. In March they all had to be cancelled. The bakery grew during the lockdown! The blog took a major hit in ad dollars due to pandemic. The blog grew substantially in 4th quarter. The blog broke all $ records this month. The bakery closed for three weeks substantial exposure to Covid (taking care of those infected) I never got it! 34 year old sister in law (ex) died suddenly of pancreatic cancer six weeks after diagnosis in July. Her father died five months later. My step mother’s duties increased a bit due to this. She inherited $10,000 from a separate source. So like everyone else, its been up and down and up and down and I didn’t even mention politics, riots, etc. WOW! However, unlike most people, I’m going to call this the best year of my life and marriage. WHY? I started a prayer call in March, praying 4 to 5 days weekly. It has changed my life, my husband’s life and those who come to pray. It has meant EVERYTHING!  By the way this is a cake I never wrote about. Blackberry w lemon mascarpone. What is the ONE GREAT THING of 2020 you experienced?

Can food make you feel better? Sometimes. But it’s been a rough two days. Remember when I said on Christmas Eve, “may tomorrow be as nice as this day: That didn’t age well. What a time! Great little Christmas morning and then I looked at my phone. A BOMB exploded in downtown Nashville. 😡😢Even though I live miles away, our cell service is still not working. We lost internet and TV as did thousands in five states.  Doug ran to Comcast the next morning to get us a temporary account. The scary thing aside from a BOMB, is how vulnerable we are with no cell service or internet (AT & T) as it was all housed in one building with no back up plan. Did you know our infrastructure is this vulnerable? Many of us still can’t call 911 if we needed to. 🙁We are grateful no residents were harmed from the bomb. We still don’t know the “who” in the remains. We don’t know what to believe. 🤷🏻‍♀️I highly recommend watching the Netflix show, Manhunt Deadly Games (about Richard Jewell (falsely accused) and Eric Rudolph (the actual Centennial Park Bomber). Great insight into serial bombers, lone wolfs, and the FBI. 🙏🏻 for not just Nashville but for America.

Merry Christmas. 🎄In spite of all the bad that came with 2020, today was a good day. I found out my wonderful step mother unexpectedly inherited a nice sum of money which she needs badly and that made my heart sing. ❤️ I’m so thrilled when other people get good things they deserve. I was also thrilled with my two sour dough creations we had tonight👩🏻‍🍳. I am still baking from  Emilie Raffa’s Sourdough Made Simple book, and had to try the spinach dip stuffed braided loaf and the camembert wreath. 😋😋Both were HUGE hits, easy directions to follow and came out perfectly.  We had charcuterie, crab cakes, arugula salad and these breads. I think I may not eat again until next year. By the way those cute keto sugar cookies a few posts back were frozen and then brought out for today. Everyone loved them. I think they are even better after being frozen. 
May tomorrow be as nice as today! We all need a good day.
