The market for gluten-free breakfast recipes has skyrocketed. Some people have gluten-free meals due to food intolerances, whereas others choose to follow these eating habits for more personal reasons. If you’ve spent much time browsing through pies, especially searching for the ever-elusive dairy-free pie recipe, you might wonder who exactly came up with the saying ‘easy as pie.’ You might even have the urge to throw a pie in their face!

That’s why we’ve tested, re-tested, and rounded up some of our best dairy-free pie recipes below. With both crisp dairy-free pie crusts and smooth dairy-free pie fillings, these recipes are sure to convert your family and guests. And when they beg you for your secret? Just say ‘It’s easy as pie!’
