2 tbsp unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

For the egg wash

1 large egg
1 tbsp milk
1 tbsp coarse sugar, for sprinkling (optional)

Instructions

1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten free flour blend, 1 tbsp granulated sugar, xanthan gum, and 1 tsp salt. Add the cold butter cubes and work them into the flour using a pastry cutter or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized butter pieces remaining.
2
Drizzle in ice water 1 tablespoon at a time, stirring with a fork after each addition, until the dough just comes together and holds when pressed — it should not be sticky or crumbly. Divide the dough into two equal discs, wrap each in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
