Never Fail Pie Crust Preparation

Mix 3 dry ingredients. Cut in shortening with 2 knives until crumbly.

In seperate bowl, mix water, vinegar and egg. Whip together and then pour all at once into flour mixture. Blend with a spoon just until all is moistened.

Divide into 4 even balls.

TIP: Place cellophane with a small amount of water under it on the counter. Cover with extra flour and then roll out the dough balls. This helps with transfering into the pie plate.

COOKING:

For an unfilled crust (pudding pie, or other no-bake pies) - Prick pie all over with fork. Bake at 475 for 8-10 minutes

For all other pies - Follow baking instructions in pie recipe.
