Yield Makes enough for one 9 1/2-inch double-crust pie or two 9- to 10-inch single-crust pies

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
6 tablespoons cold vegetable shortening or lard, cut into pieces
1/2 cup ice water, plus more if needed

Steps:

  • Pulse flour, sugar, and salt in a food processor. Add butter and shortening, and process until mixture resembles coarse meal, about 10 seconds. Add water in a slow, steady stream just until dough holds together, no longer than 30 seconds (do not overprocess). Squeeze a small amount of dough; if it doesn't hold together, add more water.
  • Remove dough from processor, and knead once or twice. Divide in half; shape into disks. Wrap each in plastic; refrigerate until firm, 1 hour or overnight.
