Gluten free vegan Rhubarb pie with ground almond crust.

Hi everyone,

Here's a large rhubarb pie/crumble I made today and there's 2Kg of rhubarb with a little coconut sugar, chia seeds and a little ginger.

The topping is made with quinoa flour, ground almonds, gf plain flour, olive oil, coconut sugar, sesame seeds and flaked almonds on top. Use 1/4 sugar to flour and ground nuts so 25g sugar to 100g of flour/nuts and just add olive oil until it starts to go from crumbly to a dough.

Coconut sugar is a really dark brown so gives the topping a really deep colour which I like. It still contains calories but it also has useful trace elements and helps feed pre-biotics.

And we've been talking about seeds and their benefits and they're so easy to add a few here and a few there...😊

Delicious. I would like some of that right now. I’ve seen a few of your things posted with flaked almonds which I never think to buy so I will be getting some of those. Whilst I am there I will also get quinoa flour which I’ve never used before......🙂

Thanks Ali, I love flaked almonds and the fact that they're healthy is a bonus. And I'm lucky as my local whole food shop sells organic quinoa flour which I add to my bread as well, so I have some every day:

I've seen your baking so look forward to seeing what you make using flaked almonds and quinoa flour...😊

How Delicious. I finally spotted the soya cream in Tesco, I am going to have to try that with a nice warm crumble
