Pastry Crust (Pie Crust) image

Easy food processor pie crust. I adapted from a Kitchenaid cookbook - theirs was good, but didn't make quite enough crust. This recipe makes enough for one double-crust pie, or two single-crust pies.

Categories     Dessert

Time 15m

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup shortening
5 tablespoons butter, cold, cut into pieces
5 -7 tablespoons water, ice cold

Steps:

  • Add flour and salt to food processor work bowl fitted with multi-purpose blade. Pulse for 2 seconds to blend.
  • Add shortening and butter. Pulse 3-4 times, about 2-3 seconds each time, until mixture is crumbly.
  • Sprinkle 5 tablespoons ice-cold water over mixture and pulse 1-3 times, about 2-3 seconds each time, until mixture pulls away from sides of work bowl and starts to form a loose ball. If necessary you can add up to 1-2 more tablespoons of water a bit at a time, but don't let it get too wet.
  • Remove from bowl and form into 2 balls.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll each ball into a circle.
  • Use crusts as directed in your recipe, for one double-crust pie, or two single-crust pies.
