Gluten free spanakopitta!

Gluten free filo pastry!

Hi all, had a request for a gluten free spanakopitta from one my Tweet buddies Liz , so i would use Rebecca Reilly's "Gluten-Free Baking" cookbook for the filo. here's her recipe( with american cup measurements):
1-3/4 c rice flour
1/4 c sweet rice flour
4 t xanthan gum
1 t unflavored gelatin
1 egg
1/4 to 1/2 cup milk
1 stick unsalted butter, melted
1 T honey

Mix together dry ingredients. Make a well in the dry ingredients large enough to hold the liquids. Lightly beat the egg with 1/4 c of the milk plus the butter and the honey.
