Serves/Makes: 2 | Ready In: < 30 minutes
Ingredients:
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cup shortening
1 egg, beaten
1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar
4 tablespoons water
Directions:
Mix together the flour and salt in a mixing bowl. Using a pastry cutter, cut the shortening into the flour mixture until it resembles fine crumbs.
In another bowl, whisk together the egg, vinegar, and water.
While using the pastry cutter, add the egg mixture to the flour mixture, mixing until combined.
Knead the dough for 10-15 seconds until smooth. Roll the dough out into 11-inch circles and press into 9-inch pie pans.
To use as a baked crust in recipes, place the pie pans in the oven and bake at 425 degrees F for 12 minutes. Or, use as an unbaked crust in your favorite recipes.
