Cuisine: American
Cost$1.22 for 2 Pie Crust

Ingredients
  

  • 2 (250 g) cups flour
  • ⅔ (151 g) cup butter or shortening I have used both, and I like them both. But butter pie crust is going to be flakier
  • 1 tsp salt
  • Ice cold water

Method
 

  1. Add your flour and your salt to a large bowl.
  2. Cut in your butter or shortening with a pastry knife or two forks.
  3. Add in your ice-cold water 1 teaspoon at a time until no flour sticks to the side of the bowl, and everything is coming together.
  4. Wrap it in plastic wrap and place it in the freezer until you are able to use it.
  5. This only takes about 10- 15 minutes.
