Basic Pie Crust
- 1 c. flour
-
- ½ c. butter
-
- 1/6 c. ice water
Put flour and butter in Cuisinart or mixer and mix until crumbly. Once butter is all in little crumbly pieces, make ice water by putting ice in water and waiting for it to get very cold. Add water and mix until solid. Sprinkle flour on a clean surface and onto the rolling pin and roll out dough, adding more flour if the dough is sticking to the rolling pin or surface you’re rolling on. Note: this makes enough crust for the bottom layer of a pie, ie. a pie without a top crust. If you want to make a pie with a layer on top, double the amounts in this recipe.
