Notes
- If you use a flour blend that doesn't contain xanthan gum, add 1 teaspoon when making the crust and 1/4 teaspoon when making the filling.
- The weight measurement for the flour should be used with Bob's Red Mill 1:1 flour only. Other flour blends will not weight the same cup for cup.
- You can mix up the filling while the crust is baking. Do not cool the crust for long before you add the filling.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator up to 1 week.
