How To Make Easy HOMEMADE PIE CRUST Recipe

Hi , everyone .

It's Natasha of Natasha's kitchen dot com .

And this is our go to recipe for homemade pie crust .

It's a tender flaky crust with rich buttery flavor and it's all natural with only butter and no shortening .

Homemade pie crust is quick and easy to make in the bowl of a food processor .

Combine 2.5 cups of flour , half a tablespoon of sugar and half a teaspoon of salt .

Pulse those together to combine .

Now you'll need half a pound of unsalted cold butter straight from the fridge , dice the butter into small pieces , then transfer it into the food processor .

Pulse the mixture together until coarse crumbs form with some p sized pieces .

Then stop mixing .

It should be dry and powdery at this point .

Now add exactly six tablespoons of ice water , then pulse just until moist clumps or small balls form to test if you've added enough water , press some of the dough between your fingertips and it should stick together .

If you overmix or add too much water , the dough will be sticky and difficult to roll out .

Transfer the dough to a clean work surface and pull it together quickly with your hands .

Do not need the dough at this point .

Just pull it together .

Now divide it in half and flatten to form two equal discs , wrap each disk in a sheet of plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator .

All right , you want to wrap this up in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least an hour .

And then you can use them for any recipe that calls for pie dough .
