Pie Crust

Ingredients:

• 2 cups flour
• 3/4 cup butter*, diced, chilled
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 cup ice water or as needed

Directions:

1. Combine the flour with the butter with pastry cutter or fork, make sure the butter is really cold.
2. Once it resembles coarse crumbs, add water 1 tbsp at a time
3. Add the water just until it comes together
4. Wrap the dough with plastic wrap
5. Store in fridge for minimum 2 hours, I usually rest it overnight
6. Sprinkle flour on working surface, roll the dough, put on baking pan
7. Put in freezer for few minutes before baking
8. I usually use low temperature on 175C for about 45 to 50 minutes
9. I don't like egg wash on my pie, so I usually brush it with coconut nectar or other liquid sweetener

* You can also use margarine but it's not as tasty as if you use butter. Sometimes I make using half butter and half margarine
