The most delicious pie crust I have ever tried! This from scratch recipe is quick, easy and mouthwatering. And it can be done at home with minimal ingredients, a pie pan, fork, and an oven.
INGREDIENTS
- 2 ½ cups of all purpose flour
- ½ a tablespoon of granulated sugar
- ½ a teaspoon of salt
- ½ a pound of cold butter
- 7 - 8 tablespoons of ice water
STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS
Step 1:
Mix your flour, sugar, and salt in a bowl until its evenly combined
Step 2:
Cut your butter into cubes. Add the cubes into the flour and mix it in with a dough cutter, or even a fork. You want the dough to start forming course crumbs. Your goal should be for the crust to have pea sized bits, but if there are some larger pieces of butter, that is fine. It will be relatively dry and powdery at this point.
Step 3:
Mix together about ½ a cup of water with a some ice and stir it around, and start pouring the ice cold water, one tablespoon at a time, into the flour mixture. Mix it up after each tablespoon is added. And stop when the dough starts forming large chunks.
Step 4:
Place your dough on a floured surface, and start folding it into itself until the flour and the fats are fully combined. It shouldn’t feel sticky, but should come together easily. If it feels too sticky you can add a small amount of flour until it stops sticking. And if it feels too dry and crumbly, you can sprinkle a small amount of water on the dough, using your fingertips. Just make sure not to overwork the dough, or else it will become tough.
Step 5:
Gather the dough into a ball and cut in half. Then flatten the two pieces into one inch disks and wrap them tightly in plastic wrap. Let them rest in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours.
Step 6:
When the dough is done resting, work with your disks one at a time. The key is to keep them as cold as possible, so leave the other disk in the fridge while you roll out the first one.
Step 7:
Transfer them to a lightly floured surface and starting from the center, gently roll out your dough, rotating and flipping it as you go, so that you can get the most even spread.
Step 8:
Transfer it carefully to your 9” dish, and you can either decorate it by crimping the edges with a fork, or by fluting the edges with your fingers
Step 9:
To bake, follow the instructions on whatever pie recipe you're following, but for me, I baked mine at 425 degrees fahrenheit for 35 minutes until it started to brown on top, putting a pie shield on about halfway through.
