Tonight, I attempted to make a gluten, corn, dairy, and egg free version of this Butternut Squash, Apple, and Onion Galette. The modifications were as follows:
-Used gluten free all-purpose flour
-Subbed vegetable shortening for the butter in the crust
-Used egg substitute
-Subbed coconut oil for the butter in the filling
-Left out the stilton cheese from the original recipe (much to my dismay)
Overall, it tasted just as I remember this recipe - which is to say, it was DELICIOUS. The crust consistency, however, wasn't so awesome. Instead of being flaky, it was crumbly and dry. So, I think it didn't have enough oil/liquid in it. Next time, I'm going to use my mother-in-law's pie crust recipe and sub gluten-free flour. Her recipe already calls for shortening instead of butter, so I'm hoping the ratios will work a bit better.
Ahh well, at least it was tasty and looked pretty! :-D
