Worlds Easiest Pie Crust Preparation

Start with one cup of flour and about 1/4 cup of margarine.

Stir together with a fork.

Stir until it forms a dough.

If to crumbly just add a little more margarine until it gets the right concistancy.

Once it becomes a pliable dough roll out to the desired thickness.

Thats it.

It comes out very good.

This can be multiplied as much as you like.

It can be used for pies and pastries or for quiches and pot pies.

For extra flavor you can add sugar or spices like cinnimon and nutmeg in the dough for desserts.

Or add herbs to the dough for quishes and pot pies.

You really cant mess up or go wrong with this pie crust. recipe

    The recipe was easy but the dough took too much butter to help it form easily.

    The recipe was easy. Sometimes a little hard to handle but I will be using it again and again. I used it for chicken pot pie. It was a big hit. Kids loved it. It may need a little salt.

    The flavor was great, but the process was frustrating.

    We ended up with about double the margarine to get it to come together, and it only did that once we got our hands down in the bowl. The dough just won't come together with a fork.

    The rolling was a process too, and we eventually just picked up the pieces and pressed them into the pie plate to make the bottom crust. We made a smaller version of it for the top crust, and just laid those pieces across the meat pie we were making, and it looked odd, but tasted extraordinary. The salt and oil from the margarine worked really well in a savory pie.

    In a pinch, this is a go-to pie crust, for sure!

    I can't wait to use this! One question - does it make enough for the top and bottom crust, or just the bottom, and I'd need to double it for the top crust? Thank you!
