No Fear Pie Crust
This No Fear Pie Crust is an easy recipe with straight forward directions.
Ingredients
- 2½ cups unbleached all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons of granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 8 tablespoons (1 stick) of sweet butter, chilled
- 6 tablespoons vegetable shortening, chilled (Crisco)
- 5 to 6 tablespoons of ice water, as needed
Instructions
- Shift flour, sugar, and salt into a mixing bowl. Added chilled butter and shortening. Work quickly and using your fingertips or a pastry blender, rub or cut shortening and butter into dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
- Sprinkle on ice water, 2-3 tablespoons at a time and toss with a fork. Turn dough out onto your work surface (cover work surface with flour) and, using the heel of your hand, smear dough away from you, about ¼ cup at a time. Scrape it up into a ball and wrap in wax paper.
- Roll dough out to a ¼ inch thickness on a floured work surface (or on wax paper.) Line a 9 inch pie plate with half of the dough. Crimp edges for a single-crust pie.
- Makes on 9 inch double crust or two 9 inch single crusts.
