BEST pie crust recipe
Prep Time | Total Time | Servings |
1h 25min | 1h 25min | 1pie (top and bottom)or 2 pies |
a. Ingredients: |
i
1. 1 ½ cups + extra for rolling
2. 1 cup (8 ounces) unsalted, very cold , cut into ½ inch cubes
3. 1 teaspoon salt
4. 1 teaspoon sugar
5. 6-8 tablespoons ice water
b. Steps:
i
Mix flour, salt, and sugar in a large bowl or food processor.
ii
Add butter. Half at a time, blending with a food processor or manually until largest pieces of butter are about the size of peas.
iii
Slowly add cold water, about ¼ cup at first and then a tablespoon at a time until dough is crumbly but can hold together if you pinch some together.
iv
Empty mix onto a dry, flat surface and separate into two piles. Knead each pile until they form disks. Don’t over-knead to make sure your crust is nice and flaky at the end.
v
Sprinkle each disk with a little flour, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for one hour (or up to two days).
vi
Remove dough from refrigerator and let sit for a few minutes to soften the dough.
vii
Roll out the dough on a floured surface until it’s in a 12inch (30cm) circle, about 1/8 inch (3mm) thick. If it’s too sticky while rolling out, dust with more flour.
viii
Place pie crust on pie pan. Add filling.
ix
Optional: place second rolled out dough on top. Trim excess crust and press edges of top and bottom together before using a fork to add a design around the edge. Score the top of the pie with four 2-inch (6cm) cuts so that steam can escape from pie while cooking.
