Time 10m

Yield Pastry for an 8- to 10-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 1/2 cups flour
8 tablespoons cold butter cut into half-inch cubes
1 tablespoon sugar
2 to 3 tablespoons ice water

Steps:

  • Put the flour, butter and sugar into the container of a food processor. Start blending.
  • Gradually add enough water so that the dough can be gathered into a fairly cohesive ball.
  • If a food processor is not used, place the flour and sugar in a mixing bowl. Add the butter and cut it in with two knives or a pastry blender until the mixture looks like coarse cornmeal. Add the water, stirring quickly with a fork.
  • Gather the dough into a ball and flatten it into a round disk one-inch thick. Wrap the dough in wax paper and chill for an hour or less.

The pastry was a little too dry for my taste.
