Dad's Mazola No-Roll Pie/Pastry Shell image

This pastry crust is so tender and flaky, and best of all SO EASY. A treasured family recipe from my dear father (Sam)---he never gave the recipe to anyone (except family), so shhh don't tell:) My Dad made 'Libby's Famous Pumpkin Pie' (2 pumpkin pies every Thanksgiving) and his extra-special 'Apple Pie In A Bag' recipe #117825 with this crust, and I use it for ALL of my pie baking. Enjoy! (Note: makes a single 8 or 9-inch crust).

I had a hard time getting the crust to come together. It kept falling apart.

This pie crust was a bit too crumbly for my taste, but it still tasted good.

I've tried many no-roll pie crust recipes, and this one is by far the best. It's so easy to work with and it always turns out perfectly.

This recipe was a lifesaver! I had a last-minute pie craving and didn't have time to make a traditional pie crust. This no-roll version was quick and easy, and it tasted just as good.

I'm a seasoned baker, and I was pleasantly surprised by how well this no-roll pie crust turned out. It was super easy to make and it baked up beautifully. The crust was flaky and golden brown, and it held up well to the filling.
