Einkorn Crust Tips

● Typically, einkorn absorbs less fat than regular wheat, so for a flaky pie crust, you can reduce the amount of fat in the dough by roughly 20%. Einkorn has 15% less starch or carbs, 30% more protein, and you can also cut back on fat in the crust, but benefit from the lovely flavor of this ancient grain. We like that!
● Using a pastry blender instead of your hands to cut the butter into the flour will prevent the warmth of your hands from softening the butter. When the butter softens, the dough can become more fragile and sticky, so avoid your hands and refrigerate the dough for about 20 minutes before rolling out the dough.
● Because einkorn has weak gluten it’s not as elastic as modern wheat, so go easy while shaping your crust.
