BTW, your pie looks wonderful. We celiacs know things may look a little different and appreciate your efforts.

I did put xanthan gum in it. I used rice, tapioca and corn starch. The crust itself I think is alright I was just so disappointed that it bubbled over like that. I kept watching it and kept watching it. I checked it one last time and said it needs maybe 5 mins went back in 3 and it looked like that lol. If the crust had browned like the regular pie I might have been able to catch it but it didnt. Ohh well I am sure it is still good.
And thanks I am trying. I have made the best cookies my husband has ever had (so he says lol) and I found some pretty good doughnuts and he likes the bisquick pancakes

I am gluten free, and have lots of problems with things like this! Some of the products are really wierd!
Now all pies are like apple crisps, with butter, oatmeal, brown sugar in equal amounts for the topping, and corn starch and a bit of sugar if you want it, mixed with the juice for thickening.

This sounds like a strange recipe, but it really works!
PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES
Mix 1 cup of peanut butter with at least a half cup of sugar, up to a whole cup. Add an egg and mix well.
Drop teaspoons of the batter on a cookie sheet and bake at 350* for about 20 min, until they are done!
Amazingly they look and taste like regular cookies!

Here are the results. Both homemade crust both the same berry recipe. And look!! UGGHHH I give up lol
I was such a good cook and baker before gluten free. Now I feel like a 5 year old in the kitchen. Everything I thought I knew is now different. LOL one day I will get it. The worst part about it all is I agreed to go on the diet for moral support (and its easier to have a dedicated gluten free house) but I so want a bite of the regular pie lol
