Pastry for Double-Crust Pie (Better Homes and Gardens ... image

My friend said this is the perfect pie-crust recipe, and she was right. Flaky and delicious. Recipe courtesy of Better Homes and Gardens.

Total Time 25 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 10 minutes

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup shortening
6 tablespoons cold water

Steps:

  • Stir together flour and salt.
  • Using a pastry blender, cut in shortening until pieces are pea size.
  • Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the water over part of the mixture and gently toss with a fork. Push moistened dough to side of bowl. Repeat, using 1 tablespoon water at a time, until all the dough is moistened. Divide in half.
  • To transfer pastry, wrap it around the rolling pin. Unroll into a 9 inch pie plate. Ease pastry into pie plate, being careful not to stretch pastry. Transfer filling to pastry-lined pie plate. Trim pastry even with rim of pie plate.
  • Roll remaining dough into a circle about 12 inches in diameter. Cut slits to allow steam to escape. Place remaining pastry on filling; trim 1/2 inch beyond edge of plate. Fold top pastry under bottom pastry. Crimp edge as desired. Bake as directed in individual recipes.

PERFECT PIE CRUST FOR DOUBLE CRUST PIE RECIPE - FOOD.COM



Perfect Pie Crust for Double Crust Pie Recipe - Food.com image

This is a tried and true Pie Crust recipe from my Better Homes and Gardens Cookbook. I always get rave reviews on my pies and everyone agrees that the best part is the crust! Also note the tricks for making it easy to get into the pan and to keep it from getting too brown!

Total Time 1 hours 20 minutes

Prep Time 20 minutes

Cook Time 1 hours

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup shortening
8 -10 tablespoons water

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, stir together flour and salt. Cut in shortening using a pastry blender or fork until shortening is in pea-sized pieces (I usually use my hand crank chopper to do this).
  • Add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing with fork in between, until all of the flour mixture is moistened and can be formed into a ball. Divide mixture in half.
  • At this point, you can roll dough into a 12 inch circle on a lightly floured surface, but I prefer to tape a 12 inch square piece of waxed paper to my work surface with double sided tape, put my dough on that, then cover with another piece of waxed paper, and roll out.
  • When dough is in a circle as big as your waxed paper (ie 12 inch circle), peel off the top layer of waxed paper and discard.
  • Lift the dough and bottom layer of waxed paper up and invert onto your pie pan. Gently peel the waxed paper off.
  • Do the same with the other 1/2 of your dough to make your top crust.
  • Before placing pie in the oven, wrap a 3 inch wide strip of foil around the edge of your crust, allowing 2 inches to fold over the top of your pie. 1/2 way through your bake time, carefully pull the foil off and finish baking. Your crust will turn out perfect every time!
