I use this for any kind of pie. Just cut the filling ingredients by about 1/3 and use half splenda in lieu of half the sugar and you can make any pie lo cal. Ingredients:
1/2 c flour |
1/4 c whole wheat flour (or regular flour) |
2 t shortening |
4 t ice water (approx.) |
Directions:
1. Combine flours. Cut in shortening with a fork until mixture resembles split peas. Gently toss in water a little at a time until mixture clings together. Do not beat, or knead! You want to preserve the fat clumps. Roll out to fit an 8 pie plate. Bake blind at 450 for 10 minutes to dry it out a bit. Fill and then bake at 450 for 15 mins then 350 for 25 mins more. Be prepared to cover it with foil if anything begins to scorch or burn.
