If you prefer to bake with whole grains instead of white flour, then this is the pie crust for you! It's easy to put together and tastes great. This crust has a hearty flavor that pairs especially well with a sausage quiche, but it's great for fruit pies too! The recipe is from Whole Foods For the Whole Family, a La Leche League cookbook. Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups whole wheat pastry flour |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 tablespoon wheat germ |
7 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 7 pieces |
1 egg yolk |
2 tablespoons ice water |
Directions:
1. Combine flour, salt and wheat germ in bowl.
2. Cut in butter until mixture is crumbly.
3. Add egg yolk and water, stirring until mixture forms a ball.
4. Wrap in waxed paper or plastic wrap; chill for 30 minutes to 24 hours before using.
