Pie Crust
Ingredients:
- 2 - 4 T ice water
- 2 C flour
- 2 T sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 4 Oz Cold Plant Based Butter (cubed)
- 1/2 C Crisco shortening
Method:
- Preheat oven to 400F.
- Stir the flour, salt, and sugar together in a bowl.
- Cut the cold butter into the flour mixture until it forms dime size pieces.
- Then cut the shortening into the mixture until it forms dime size pieces.
- Add the ice water gradually until it forms a dough.
- Place in refrigerator while you make the filling.
- Dust your surface with flour and cut your dough ball in half.
- Roll out half the dough into a circle, and place in pie tin.
- Place filling in and then roll out the second half of dough and place on top.

Note:
It is important to not handle the pie crust too much and try to keep it cold until you cook it. This will result in a flaky crust.
