Pie Crust
Ingredients
- 1 cup plain flour
- 1/3 cup vegetable shortening
- 1/4 tsp salt
- cool water
Directions
- In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Cut in shortening with a fork until fine crumbs. Add in 2-3 Tbsp cool water and mix.
- If it's not forming a dough, add in another 1-2 Tbsp of water until no dry flour remains.
- Make into a ball and put onto a floured work surface.
- Flour a rolling pin and roll out to 1" wider all around than the pie plate you'll be using.
- Transfer to the pie plate and add pie filling ingredients if the pie will be baked.
- If your recipe calls for a baked crust, dock the crust with a fork and bake in a preheated 350*F oven for 10-12 minutes and let cool before filling. Makes 1 crust. For a double crust or lattice top, double the recipe. Enjoy!
