Gluten-Free Recipes

We started out using the Nutrition Point pastry mixes but then decided to have a go at our own. It took a bit of trial and error with the amount of fat (see below) but it's worked out very well.

Gluten-Free Pastry

What you need...

8oz of gluten-free flour
A pinch of salt
4oz to 6oz of butter or margarine¹
Water to mix

What you need to do...

Sieve the flour and salt.
Rub in the margarine.
Add a little water if necessary.
Kneed, allow to stand and then roll out.
Fill with whatever you prefer and top.
Cook at 190ºC² until golden.

What you can add...

One or two tablespoons of icing or castor sugar to make it sweet pastry.

Notes

¹ On our first attempt, the pastry was really difficult to roll out. The only solution was to add more margarine to the original recipe. I'd say 5oz is about right.
² That's Gas Mark 5.
