Easy Whole Wheat Pie Crust Recipes

BASIC 100% WHOLE WHEAT PIE CRUST

Basic 100% Whole Wheat Pie Crust image

I generally try to eat as many whole grain foods as I can and I was astonished to discover not a single basic 100% whole wheat pie crust recipe here at Allrecipes. So here's mine! I previously had trouble with whole wheat pie crusts; they tended to be hard to work with and crumbly. Then I added wheat gluten, as I do for bread, and voila! This makes enough for one 8-inch pie. If you're making a recipe that requires a top and bottom crust, double the recipe.

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

¾ cup whole wheat flour
1 tablespoon wheat gluten
½ teaspoon salt
¼ cup vegetable shortening
2 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon water, or more as needed
21 tablespoons whole wheat flour, or as needed

Steps:

Mix 3/4 cup flour, gluten, and salt together in a bowl. Cut shortening into flour mixture using a pastry blender until mixture is crumbly. Mix 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon water into the flour mixture using your hands until dough easily forms a ball; add more water if needed.
Flatten dough into a pancake-like shape on a floured surface; sprinkle top of dough liberally with about 1 tablespoon flour. Roll dough, using a rolling pin, into a thin pie crust about 1-inch larger than your pie pan. Roll the crust onto the rolling pin and transfer to the pie pan.

EASY WHOLE WHEAT PIE CRUST

Easy Whole Wheat Pie Crust image

So quick to make, and the brown sugar adds a little extra sweetness to the crust. Good workout for your arms too! FYI: One reviewer said to use "soft wheat" instead of "hard wheat"...I have only ever used the flour that is labeled "whole wheat flour" or "white whole wheat flour," no mention of hard or soft, so I'm not sure what that's about. It seems none of my other reviewers have had that problem.

EASY PAT-IN PRESS-IN WHOLE WHEAT PIE CRUST - GRAHAM CRACKER SUB.

Easy Pat-In Press-In Whole Wheat Pie Crust - Graham Cracker Sub. image

Thanks to the reviewer who tried this recipe without the sugar - and let me know it does not work that way after all. I had not tried it that way myself before posting; now that I know, I've updated the recipe. It really is a great dessert pie crust, though, as the other reviews confirm. This pie crust is best with fillings which contain milk or cheese - for example, it goes very well with Fudgy Peanut Butter Ricotta Pie (Recipe #101297). In general, it's a good substitute for a graham cracker crumb crust.

Cut the butter and shortening into a small dice, then place them in the freezer while you prepare the rest of the ingredients. Place the all purpose flour, whole wheat pastry flour, salt, and sugar in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade, then pulse a few times to combin. Scatter the butter and shortening pieces over the top. Pulse 8 to 12 times, until the butter is the size of chickpeas. Some of the pieces will be small and others will be larger (about the size of a thumnail).
With the machine running, add 4 tablespoons ice water to feed tube. Add the remaining water one tablespoon at a time, just until the dough is moist enough to hold together with a small portion is pinched between your fingers.

Mix flour and salt in a large bowl or food processor.

Pat the dough into a 5-inch disk. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 2 days. Remove from the refrigerator about 15 minutes before rolling out.
Roll the dough between sheets of parchment paper into a 12-inch circle. Peel off the top sheet and invert the dough into a 9-inch pie pan. Remove the second sheet, trim off any overhanging dough and crimp the edges with a fork or spoon.
