    Taste spot on ... Not me, Mrs D&D 150g of Dove's gluten free flour, 50g gram flour, 100 cornflour, no sugar in the flour mix :thumbsup:

    So what’s the secret ingredient? Whenever I make GF pastry it’s just a bit crumbly for the pie crust
    is it the cornflour? Not tried adding that

    That and the gram flour help with that, and also block margarine not from a "spreadable" tub :)

    Seems straightforward enough .... Have to watch out for Palm oil in a lot of the margarines mind ... if the environment is on your "to do list" ;)

    My grandmothers . A circle of quarter inch thick dry short pastry with a smear of mincemeat and sugar. Kept warm on the gas boiler 24/7.. or maybe not.

    Hmmm, good shout, thanks - I'll give it a try :thumbsup:

    …. when you say you've never made pastry, you mean gf pastry right?? I mean, without pastry there is no Homity Pie, the greatest pie in all the world, and that would just be wrong! ;)
