Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup unsalted butter, chilled
4 tablespoons shortening, chilled
5 tablespoons ice water

Steps:

  • Place flour in a bowl with the sugar and salt. Cut the butter and shortening into pieces, and cut into the flour until crumbly. Mix in vanilla. Add just enough water to form a ball: it should not be sticky. Knead quickly into a smooth ball. Wrap in plastic wrap, and chill for 1 hour.
  • When ready to make pie, roll dough out as you would any crust. Do not let sit out, or handle excessively allowing to soften. Easiest to work with if firm.

I found the pastry to be a bit dry. Next time, I'll try adding a little bit of milk or cream to the dough.

The pastry was a bit too sweet for my taste, but that's easily remedied by reducing the amount of sugar.

I was skeptical about the amount of butter, but it really does make the pastry incredibly tender and flaky.
