Yield 1 "9 inch double crust"

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup vegetable shortening
1/4 cup water

Steps:

  • With a pastry blender or two knives, cut in vegetable shortening until uniform; mixture should be fairly coarse.

  • Roll top crust the same way and lift onto filled pie; trim 1/2" beyond the edge of pie plate.
  • Fold top edge under bottom crust and flute with fingers or fork.
