Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup cold unsalted butter cubed
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 cup ice-cold water

Instruction

  • Blend dry ingredients and butter: Mix flour and salt in a large mixing bowl. Add the butter and blend using pastry blenders or your fingers until you have a bowl filled with crumbs.
  • Make pastry: Mix vinegar and water in a measuring jug. Slowly pour over dry ingredients and mix just until it comes together into a dough. Push into a ball. Do not knead or overwork! Divide into 2 disks, wrap in foil and chill for 1 hour.
  • Roll out crust: Place 1 disk of the pastry between 2 sheets of baking parchment. Roll into a circle slightly larger than a 9 inch pie dish. Fit into the lightly greased pie dish and place back into the fridge to chill. For a double crust pie, roll out top crust as directed for bottom crust, and chill between the prachment sheets until ready to use. Use the crust with your favorite pie filling.
