Who Doesn't Like Apple Pie?

One more last minute dinner for company this week:

Alice's Spring Chicken
Mashed Potatoes
Green Beans
GF Apple Pie

Alice's Spring Chicken
Honey Mustard Marinade:
1/2 cup Grey Poupon Dijon mustard
1/2 cup honey
1 1/2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

Topping:
2 cups sliced mushrooms (10-12 mushrooms)
salt and pepper
paprika
8 slices bacon, cooked
1 cup shredded cheese
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh parsley


Marinate 2+ hours, sear in pan, cook in oven.
Top with mushrooms, bacon, and cheese. Sprinkle with parsley.

GF Apple Pie
Pie Crust
1 1/2c rice flour
2t honey
1/2t salt
1t xanthan gum
2/3c butter or oil
(4T water)

This is supposed to be enough for a double pie crust. Instead you omitt the water and plop the wet sand mixture into a pie shell until it resembles a bottom crust, and then take the remainder and shape it into a 3 leaf clover for st.Patrick's day (only 3 leaves because I'm just not feeling that lucky) sprinkle with green sugar and bake. It looks pretty but is still inedible despite the sprinkles. Just remember to NOT MAKE this crust in the future.

Apple Pie Filling:
6 sliced peeled cored apples
1T lemon juice
3/4c sugar
2T rice flour
1/2t cinnamon
1/8t nutmeg

Crumb Topping:
1/2c oat flour
1/2c brown sugar
3T butter substitute

Process in food processor until crumbly. Top apple pie with this since your double crust top was a fail. I am beginning to think that oat flour is the best for baking.
