Pie Crust -Blue Ribbon

Features:
    Cuisine:

    used butter flavored Crisco. The flavor of the crust was excellent, and it was so flaky it couldnt be removed from the pan without breaking. In fact, getting the dough into the pan in one piece was pretty nearly impossible. I was able to patch up the damage fairly easily, but I dont think this is the recipe for you if pretty is what you are after. I gave it 4 stars only because of the fragile nature of the dough and finished crust. As for taste, it is a prize winner!

I hated to post this but I could not find another like it. use Recipe #148727 for the filling, every holiday 🙂 Note: I just tried this crust with Chicken Pot Pie and ummmm just the best This will make 3 each 8″ crust or 2 ea 9″ crusts. When I take the time to make crust, I make extra, I roll it out between 2 sheets of wax paper and place in the large tupperware (about 2″ high) flat bowl and place in freezer…then when I want to make a pie, I can do so in a hurry!,used butter flavored Crisco. The flavor of the crust was excellent, and it was so flaky it couldnt be removed from the pan without breaking. In fact, getting the dough into the pan in one piece was pretty nearly impossible.

    Edit (11/5/2019): I No Longer Roll Out Between Two Pieces of Wax Paper. I Now Use a Bethany 20 Inch Pastry Board and Cloth. Before That I Was Using a Pastry Cloth With a Rolling Pin Cover. Either of These Methods I Found Was So Much Easier Than the 2 Sheets of Wax Paper as My Mom Showed Me How to Do. (i Am Now 65).

    Done

    Follow Your Recipes For Baking Directions. I Cook a Two Crust Cherry Pie at 375 For Approx 50 Minutes. Sometimes I Have to Use a Pie Crust Shield For the Edge For the Last 10 Min or So.

    If I Am Doing a Cream Pie, I Put on My Lower Rack For 425 and Immediately Lower the Oven to 400 For 10 to 12 Minute.
