Instruction

  • TO MAKE A BUTTER CRUST
  • Heat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • In a small bowl, mix together flour, sugar, and salt. Using a fork, cut in the butter until mixture resembles wet sand.
  • Add water and stir to form dough.
  • Turn the dough out onto a piece of plastic wrap. Flatten into a disc and wrap completely in the plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 20 minutes.
  • After the dough has chilled, unwrap the dough and place it on a piece of parchment paper. Cover with a second piece of parchment paper. Using a rolling pin roll the dough into a 6-inch round circle about 1/8-inch thick.
  • Place the parchment paper with the dough onto a baking sheet and remove the top piece of parchment.
  • Add the pie filling and bake 20 minutes until crust is golden.
