How to make the almond flour pie crust dough:

  • In a large mixing bowl, sift together the 2 cups almond flour, ⅓ cup arrowroot starch, and ½ teaspoon sea salt.
    Add 1 stick of cold butter (½ cup).
    Use a pastry blender to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Form a well in the center of your flour mixture.
    Add 1 egg.
    Use a fork to mix together until the egg is fully incorporated and the batter feels sticky.
  • Use your hands to bring the mixture together into a tight ball.
    Form the ball into a small disk.
    Place the disk of dough between 2 pieces of parchment paper and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

  • Remove the dough from the fridge. Use a rolling pin to flatten the dough while it is still inside the parchment paper. Roll it to roughly 1 inch larger diameter than the pie dish.
  • Remove 1 side of the parchment paper, transfer the dough carefully to the pie dish, exposed pie crust side down.
    Remove the other side of the parchment paper.
  • Press the pie crust into the pie dish.
