Hello! Your note indicates that you do not need to use the clearjel. Do I need to substitute anything else? What will the difference be without it? Thanks for your help with making a tasty GF pie! The Instant Clear Jel is an optional ingredient. It helps to bind the crust together, but is not a necessary ingredient. If you don't have the Instant Clear Jel on hand, there's no need to substitute. If you have any other questions, please call our Baker's Hotline and we'll be happy to help! ~Mel
