Wild Blueberry Pie (Fat-Free)

Ingredients:

Dough:

• 2 cups gluten-free oat flour
• ½ cup tapioca flour
• ½ cup applesauce
• 2 tbsps pure maple syrup
• 1 tbsp coconut sugar

Filling:

• 6 cups frozen wild blueberries
• ⅔ cup raw honey or pure maple syrup
• ⅓ cup + 1 tbsp arrowroot starch or tapioca starch
• 1 tbsp lemon juice

Crumble topping:

• ¾ cup gluten free oat flour
• ¾ cup brown rice flour
• ¼ cup pure maple syrup

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350°F/180°C.

In a mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free oat flour and tapioca flour. Stir until evenly mixed. Add applesauce, pure maple syrup, and coconut sugar, and mix/knead until you get a soft dough that’s not sticky. Add more oat flour or applesauce to achieve this consistency.

Roll the dough out between two sheets of parchment paper, then transfer to a 9-inch pie dish. Using your hands, press the dough evenly into the bottom and sides of the dish. You can use a glass to flatten the bottom. Prick the dough a few times with a fork. Refrigerate until needed.

To make the crumble topping, combine the oat flour and brown rice flour in a small bowl. Whisk until uniform, then pour in the pure maple syrup. Rub the syrup into the dry ingredients until you get a crumbly mixture. Set aside until needed.

To make the filling, combine the wild blueberries, pure maple syrup, arrowroot and lemon juice in a large saucepan. Bring the heat to medium-high and cook, stirring often, until you get a very thick mixture. Transfer filling to prepared crust and top with crumble. Bake for 25 to 35 minutes, until the crust is browned. Set aside until cooled to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving.
