Almond meal is fantastic! Xanthan gum will likely help shore up the structural problems with pie crust with it, but it actually makes for a great 1:1 replacement for graham cracker crumb crust pies recipes without further modification. If you do end up going back on gluten, you can also replace a portion of regular flour with almond flour without impacting texture too much and adding in flavor. If you have a decent egg replacement, apparently you can make vegan/gluten free macarons, which are traditionally all almond flour anyway and also tasty as all heck.
