Gluten Free Creamy Lemon Pie

My husband saw a recipe in a magazine of this really yummy looking Creamy Lemon Pie and hinted at wanting me to make it for him. Since Father’s Day was around the corner, my daughter and I decided to make it as our dessert for Father’s Day.

It had a silky consistency like ice cream yet it had a nice lemon flavor! Not overpowering lemon flavor at all!

We made the gluten free graham cracker crust since I have no idea where to find one in the stores around here.

Nevertheless, it was a nice ending to a long day.

Gluten Free Pumpkin Pie with a sweet pie crust

Pumpkin Pie

When I made my Gluten Free Cuccidati Cookies I had a lot of dough leftover. And since the dough rolls out like a Pastry Dough I decided to experiment and see what it would taste like as a pie crust shell. So I made a Gluten Free Pumpkin Pie using said dough and prayed it would taste at least ok on Thanksgiving. Cause everyone knows that Thanksgiving isn’t really the right place to experiment with food recipes when everyone is expecting their Traditional yummy recipes.

Nevertheless, I experimented and the crust was better than ok.. it was delicious! I stressed for no reason, LOL.

I love quiche and would always buy frozen quiche before I was diagnosed gluten intolerant. And even though making quiche is a rather easy meal to make – I have never really thought about making it from scratch until now.

I have an abundance of eggs and why not use them for an entrée like a quiche!

I also used my Pie Crust recipe that I used previously for pies. Of course as soon as it was out of the oven I had to have a slice! And it was oh so delicious!

Gluten Free Pie Crust | Small Town Living in Nevada

I am not the best baker in my opinion. And I really have never been one to like to make pie crusts. If anything I don’t like crust because if it isn’t flaky thin — I will turn my nose up to it. I actually loved using Pilsbury’s pre-made pie crust cause it is the exact thin and flaky that I have always loved. But now being gluten free changed my way of baking altogether.

I have been on the search for that perfect crust and I think I have found it.
