Pastry Dough
Method
Pastry Preparation
- 1
Make the Pastry Dough
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Add the cold, cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together. Shape the dough into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Roll Out the Dough
Once chilled, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). On a floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/8 inch thick. Cut into desired shapes or circles to form the pastries.

Bake the Pastries
Place the cut dough onto a lined baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool.
