Learn how to make the perfect homemade pie crust.

 Ingredients

• 1 ½ cup, All Purpose Flour


• ½ cup, COLD Shortening or Unsalted Butter*


• ½ tsp, Salt


• 2-3 Tbsp, ICE water


• Flour for dusting surface to roll out dough

I personally prefer to use ¼ cup each rather than one or the other.

Directions

1. In a medium bowl blend together flour, salt and shortening/butter with a pastry blender or fork. You want the flour mixture to be pea sized crumbles.


2. Slowly add in ice water by teaspoons. I use clean hands and mix by hand but you can use a fork or spoon.


3. When dough starts to form a smooth ball put on floured surface. Knead folding over itself 4-5 times to create layers.


4. Roll out and place in pie plate.


5. Fill with desired filling.
