I know a few people will come across this and find nothing here helps. The easiest way I have found to do it is like this:

dict_count = len(dict_list)
df = pd.DataFrame(dict_list[0], index=[0])
for i in range(1,dict_count-1):
    df = df.append(dict_list[i], ignore_index=True)

Hope this helps someone!
