PEANUT BUTTER PIE CRUST 
3/4 c. whole wheat pastry flour
3/4 c. peanut butter
3 tbsp. maple syrup
1-2 tbsp. cold water

Place the flour and the peanut butter in a large bowl. Using a fork or your hands, incorporate the peanut butter into the flour to form crumbs. Stir in the maple syrup and mix well.

Slowly stir in enough water to make the mixture hold together well. Transfer the dough to a 9" pie pan and press it evenly against the sides and bottom of the pan. Flute the edges of the crust and poke holes all over the bottom and sides to keep it from puffing up. Bake at 375 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes, or until brown.
