Pie Crust

This crust recipe is super simple!!  I made a cherry pie for Father's Day and this is the crust recipe I used to go along with it.  It was perfectly light and flaky.  This recipe only makes one crust so for my pie I had to do the recipe twice, it will all depend on what type of pie you're making.

Ingredients:
1 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons cold butter
4 tablespoons ice cold water

Steps:
Mix together the flour and salt in a medium bowl.  Cut in butter with a pastry blender until the mixture is pebble sized crumbs.  Add the water and blend until dough forms.  Roll into a ball and place on floured surface.  Roll the dough big enough to cover your pie plate.  Flour the rolling pin and gently roll the dough around the pin.  Unroll over pie plate.  Gently press into pan making sure to cover all edges.  Crimp the edges.

This crust is now ready for your favorite pie filling.

Happy Baking!
