Ingredients

Scale
  • 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

Instructions

  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.
