Pie Crust for Idiots
Recipe Description
literally the easiest recipe I have ever used in my life. I have no idea how to cook things right but I tried this ONE time and it turned out great. I truly think it’s hard to mess this up. enjoy xoxoxox
Ingredients
2.5 cups all-purpose OR bread flour
dash of salt
1 cup cold butter, cut into cubes
6-8 tablespoons ice water
Instructions
put the flour and salt into a food processor or blender.
Give it a little mixy mixy to combine.
then put the butter in a couple chunks at a time, blending a little in between so that it forms granules.
once all the butter is added, add a few tablespoons of water at a time until the dough takes shape. it should form a loose ball and hold its shape when you press a fork into it – but NOT soft enough that it sticks to your hands
take that bad boy out, wrap it in cling wrap, and pop it in the freezer! (if you’re making a pastry with crust topping, take a portion of the dough for that and chill it separately)
chill for AT LEAST an hour ideally two. can stay in the freezer for probably like a day i dunno it works
