Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a food processor, pulse the gluten-free cookies until finely ground into crumbs. (2 minutes)

03

Step

Transfer the cookie crumbs to a medium bowl. Drizzle 5 tablespoons of melted coconut oil over the crumbs and mix thoroughly with a fork. If the mixture seems too dry and doesn't hold together when pressed, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of coconut oil, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the desired consistency is achieved. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Press the crumb mixture firmly and evenly into a 9-inch pie plate, creating a cohesive crust that extends up the sides. (5 minutes)

05

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until the crust is lightly golden brown and fragrant, approximately 10-15 minutes. Watch carefully to prevent over-browning, especially if using for a pie that requires further baking. (15 minutes)

06

Step

Remove from the oven and let cool completely before filling with your desired pie filling. (30 minutes)

For a richer flavor, try using toasted nuts in combination with the cookie crumbs.
Experiment with different gluten-free cookies to create unique flavor profiles.
If the crust starts to brown too quickly during baking, tent it loosely with aluminum foil.
For a no-bake pie, chill the crust in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes after pressing it into the pie plate to help it set.

    This recipe is a lifesaver! I can finally enjoy pie again without worrying about gluten.

  • Edgardo Oreillyconnelly

    My crust turned out a bit too crumbly. I think I needed to add a little more coconut oil.

    I used gluten-free chocolate cookies, and it was amazing!
