The crust was really good. I didn't use the filling part of the recipe so I can't address that. The crust was somewhat flaky (not like white flour can get) and the taste was not overwhelmingly wheaty. It stayed together in the pot pie rather than crumbling or dissolving, as other recipes I've tried have done. It's a keeper for my family!
