Gluten Free Pie Crust

This is an excellent Gluten Free pastry crust. 
The egg is a very helpful binder, and this is  a rich great tasting shortbready type pastry sure to satisfy even the wheat/gluten -gluttons among us)
 If gluten is not an issue for you, just use regular flour and no need for xantham gum. 
The pastry  sets well  after cooling some time,
 If you roll it out (to make bars instead) will cover at 9"x 13" pan and there will be more filling recipes to come (have a timely coconut  berry tart one to follow soon!)
