How to store Gluten-free Pecan Pie Crust:

You can make the crust then place it in the fridge or freezer – decrease air in bag as much as possible. Do not keep long – since this is a more cakey recipe and crust starts to fall apart.

Ingredients – grind oats and pecans (but not too much – no nut butter)
mix all ingredient in bowl
butter and GF flour pie pan
Use your hands to create pie crust
bake
Bake again with pie filling as per recipe of choice.

Why Did my Pecan Gluten-free Pie Crust fall apart?

This Gluten-free Pie is easy cause you just press it into the pie pan and its good. If it seems a bit dry then add a touch more butter or oil. The Pecans need to be blended to breakup the pecans into smaller pieces but also release the oils making it a great binder!
