Extra gluten-free flour for dusting

Directions

1.
1.
Place the gluten-free flour into a large bowl and cut in the dairy-free butter.
It may become warm and seem like a butter ball, but allow it to sit in the fridge for 2 hours so the starches and fats can combine and absorb.

3.
Pour your choice of sweet or savory (I chose GF cherry pie filling) contents into the partially baked pie crust, and, if desired, arrange the pie dough scraps, as I did above, using a cookie cutter.
If desired, you can re-roll the pie dough scraps to make a pie crust top. Since there is no gluten to develop in the dough it can't be over-worked or become stiff so work this dough as much as you want! You may need to chill it before re-rolling.
