The holidays are here and we are all searching for new gluten free recipes with a twist. Here’s one you will all love! Booze and pie aren’t common words with the gluten free diet. In this wonderful gluten free recipe, PRE Brand’s talented (and one of my favs!) culinary manager, Chef Sarah Russo, swapped OUT a gluten free ale with two easy gluten free options below and used one of our favorite gluten free flours to bring you a perfect gluten free meal! This recipe I have aptly titled as, Beef Pie Gone Gluten Free and Grass Fed.
PRE’s unbeatable chuck roast melts into a rich gravy-filled pie. A delicious take on this British classic with a flaky crust of cassava and grass-fed butter, no gluten required. You can find many additional PRE Brand’s recipes on my paleo site as well.

Instructions

- Slowly pour in cold water, little streams at a time, while hitting the pulse button.
- Do not over mix.
- Run on low to bring dough ball together.
- If it’s too crumbly, add more water and run processor on low again.
