Place einkorn flour, salt, sugar, if using, and butter in a mini food processor, pulse a couple of times until you see large crumbs.

Add farmers cheese or ricotta, and process until dough starts to come together.

Turn the dough onto a floured work surface, and form a ball.

Pre-heat oven to 350ºF (175ºC).

Roll the dough out to fit your pie pan; transfer it to the pie pan. Trim the edges with a knife, holding the knife parallel to the counter, reserve the trimmings to make leaves. Alternatively, you can shape the edges any way you prefer.

Smooth the edges with your fingers.

Combine the trimmings into a ball, roll it out, and make shapes using pie crust cutters, or cookie cutters. Repeat until all the dough is gone.

Place a pie weight (or some parchment paper with a handful of dried beans) on top of the crust and bake for 10 minutes.

Mix pie filling ingredients in a blender (I use Blendtec) until completely smooth; pour into the pie crust. Place the cutout shapes on top in any design you like. Bake uncovered for 20 minutes, then cover with foil and bake 25 minutes longer.

Cool completely before slicing.
