Pie Crust

Method

Pie Crust Preparation

  1. 1

    Combine Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt.

  2. 2

    Cut in Butter

    Add the unsalted butter, cut into small cubes, into the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  3. 3

    Add Ice Water

    Gradually add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing lightly until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overmix.

  4. 4

    Chill the Dough

    Form the dough into a ball, flatten it into a disk, and wrap it in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
