This pie crust is a pat in crust, but tastes flaky and delicious in spite of being a lazy version. From my Great Grandmother Mabel Larson's recipe. I've made it parve (or vegan-here it would be the same thing). I'll make a note later if my savory version of this turns out well. See recipe for Fresh Peach Pie, for something to put in the crust.

1 stick crisco
1- 2 pinch salt

Tips:

  • Use cold butter and water: This will help to keep the dough flaky and prevent it from becoming tough.
  • Work the dough quickly: Overworking the dough will make it tough. Just mix it until it comes together.
  • Chill the dough before rolling it out: This will make it easier to work with and prevent it from shrinking in the oven.
  • Roll the dough out evenly: This will help to ensure that the pie crust cooks evenly.
  • Trim the edges of the dough: This will help to prevent the pie crust from becoming too thick.
  • Bake the pie crust until it is golden brown: This will ensure that it is cooked through.
