Ingredients


Original recipe makes 1 pie 
  •  1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  •  1/4 teaspoon salt
  •  1/2 cup shortening, chilled
  •  3 tablespoons ice water

Directions

  1. Whisk the flour and salt together in a medium size bowl. With a pastry blender, cut in the cold shortening until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Drizzle 2 to 3 tablespoons ice water over flour. Toss mixture with a fork to moisten, adding more water a few drops at a time until the dough comes together.
  2. Gently gather dough particles together into a ball. Wrap in plastic wrap, and chill for at least 30 minutes before rolling.
  3. Roll out dough, and put in a pie plate. Fill with desired filling and bake.
