Pastry Dough

Method

Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the ice water, a tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together. Shape the dough into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Roll Out the Dough

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). On a floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thick. Use it to line your pastry molds or cut out shapes for pastries.

  3. 3

    Fill and Bake

    Fill the pastry with your favorite filling (such as fruit, chocolate, or cream). Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown.

  4. 4

    Cool and Serve

    Let the pastries cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your delicious homemade pastries!
