Double Pie Crust
2 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp. salt
1 cup shortening
Cold water
Mix flour and salt together in large bowl. Cut in shortening until you have dime-sized pieces. Slowly add COLD water and mix with a fork until all the flour is moistened (but not too wet!) Chill dough in freezer for a few minutes before rolling out.
For single crust: Halve recipe above, poke crust with fork after it's in the pie plate for better cooking. Bake at 450 degrees for about 10 minutes, or until golden. |
