Crust Preparation

Make the Pie Crust
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt. Cut in the unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Form the Dough
Gradually add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together. Do not overwork the dough.

Chill the Dough
Shape the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Roll Out the Dough
On a floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a 12-inch circle. Carefully transfer it to a 9-inch pie pan, trimming any excess dough.

Pre-bake the Crust
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork and bake for 10-12 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
