Introduction
This is a delicate, flaky crust, perfect for cream pies but also great for fruit and savory pies. I use this crust for my Tourtiere-Canadian Meat Pie.
Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup cold butter
3 to 4 tablespoons cold water


 

Directions
Step: 1

Combine flour and 1/8 teaspoon salt in small bowl. Cut in butter with pastry blender or fork until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in enough water with fork just until flour is moistened. Shape dough into ball and flatten slightly.Roll out ball of dough on lightly floured surface into 12-inch circle. Fold into quarters. Place dough into 9-inch pie pan; unfold, pressing firmly against bottom and sides. Trim crust to 1/2 inch from edge of pan. Crimp or flute edge.For a pre baked crust, prick bottom and edges of crust with a fork, or use pie weights. Bake in a 325 degree oven for  about 15 minutes, or until lightly browned.
