How to Make a Pie Crust


Ingredients: Yields two 9" crusts

All Purpose Flour--- 2.5 CUPS
Salt--- 1 TSP
Butter (diced)--- 1 CUP (two sticks)
Cold Water--- 3/4 CUP

STEP BY STEP:

  • 1. Mix flour and salt in a large bowl

  • 2. Dice butter and add to flour. Using a hand-held pastry blender, cut butter until pea-sized and somewhat mixed with the flour.


  • 3. Add water butter/flour mixture and knead until a solid dough ball has formed. Add a few more pinches of flour if dough is sticky.

  • 4. Press dough into a large patty and wrap in wax paper. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before use.
