Pie Crust Recipe:
Makes enough for 1 pie.
Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups flour
1 1/4 tsp salt
3/4 cup vegetable shortening
3 tbsp butter
6 tbsp ice cold water
Directions:
1. Mix the flour and salt in a stand mixer with a paddle attachment until combined.
2. Add half of the vegetable shortening and mix until the mixture looks like cornmeal.
3. Then add the other half of the shortening and the butter and mix until well combined.
4. Slowly add the water until the mixture becomes a dough.
5. Take the dough out of the bowl and divide it in half. Take each of those pieces and wrap them in plastic wrap.
6. Freeze the dough for at least 15 minutes before working with it. This prevents tearing. The dough can be stored in the freezer for 3-6 months.
Now time to make the pie!
