Sprouted Wheat Pie Crust image

This is a real food, no-fail staple that can be made with spelt, whole wheat, or sprouted wheat. When using sprouted wheat, you may need to add more water to make the desired consistency. I like to make pie crusts ahead of time and freeze them. This recipe makes one crust and lattice for the top. Doubling the recipe will give you three crusts.

Yield 1 1/2 crusts

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups sprouted wheat, whole wheat or 2 cups spelt flour
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/3 cup cold butter
1/3 cup cold palm shortening (I use Spectrum brand)

  • 2. Mix together flour and salt.

  • 7. Peel off one side of the wax paper, transfer to a pie plate, and peel off the other side of the wax paper.

This pie crust was a bit too dense for my taste. I think I'll stick to my regular pie crust recipe.
