Title: Nutty Wheat Pie Crust

1 1/2 C whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 C almond meal
2 T sugar
1/2 t salt
1/2 C canola oil
2 T cold water

Combine the pastry flour, almond meal, sugar, and salt in a medium mixing bowl.

Add the canola oil and mix until all the flour is incorporated. Add the water and stir thoroughly until the mixture forms a soft dough.

Form the dough into a ball and roll it out between two sheets of waxed paper. Remove the top sheet of waxed paper, place the pie pan over the dough, and invert the dough and pan together. Remove the remaining sheet of waxed paper and trim the edges of the crust with a knife.

For a no-bake pie, bake the crust alone in a preheated 350° F oven for 10 minutes. Cool before filling.

For a savory pie, omit the sugar.
