This Olive Oil Whole Wheat Pie Crust is a 100% vegan pie crust and a perfect alternative to a classic butter pie crust. Nutty, wholesome and high in fiber, this healthier pie crust makes a great base for quiches and savory tarts. 

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (240g) whole-wheat flour
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1/3 cup + 1 Tablespoon (100 ml) olive oil
  • 1/3 cup + 1 Tablespoon (100 ml) water, lukewarm

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 410°F (210°C) and grease a 9 to 11-inch (23 to 28 cm) pie dish or tart pan with oil. Set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, mix all the ingredients for the crust with a wooden spatula until they stick together and form a thick dough. Cover the bowl with a cloth and let sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes.
  3. Roll out the dough into a large disk, and carefully transfer into the prepared pie dish.
  4. Pre-bake the crust for about 10 minutes, then add the fillings of your choice for a savory tart or quiche and bake again according to quiche recipe instructions.
