4 Pie Crust Recipes That Don’t Need Graham Crackers!

a2I have nothing against graham crackers. I have never had one before and it is not a very common biscuit in Australia. I’m sure there’s an Australian equivalent of graham crackers in amongst the multitude of biscuit varieties available.

But today, let’s explore what other ingredients you can make crust with?

1. Cornflakes & Peanut Butter Crust

Cruncheee… I likey! This is a dairy free recipe and can be gluten free if you use gluten free cornflakes. Recipe here.

2.  Olive Oil, Flour & WaterGoat Cheese, Arugula (Rocket) & Caramelised Onion Quiche

The concept of making this olive oil crust is pretty much the same as making shortcrust pastry. The only difference is instead of butter, I substituted with olive oil. I remember when my mum was teaching me how to make shortcrust pastry, she kept stressing that I better not taking my sweet time to “rub” the butter with flour. This is because at any point of time the butter should remain solid and the longer we rub the butter with flour, the heat from our fingers will melt the butter and the pastry may not be light and crumbly. Imagine how hard it was to do this in 40C heat in Malaysia! Well, this olive oil crust kinda solve my stress a little ha! Recipe here.

3. Almond Meal, Butter & Brown Sugar

Gluten Free PassionFruit Cheesecake with Caramelised Pineapple | Do Your Thing with Philadelphia | www.fussfreecooking.comThis cheesecake is my pride and joy. When I was approached to create a cheesecake recipe, the first thing that came to mind was I wanted to make a gluten free cheesecake! While the caremelised pineapple and maple syrup drizzles made the photo pop, it was the almond meal crust that brought the cheesecake to another level. Recipe here.

4. Tim Tams & Butter

    I really do love an almond meal crust and you have a couple of gooduns in here. I really do wish I knew what a Graham cracker was though for substitution purposes.
