Ingredients:

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1 tsp. sugar
  • 1 cup. (2 sticks) unsalted butter, chilled and cut into small pieces
  • 1/4 to 1/2 cup. ice water

Directions:

  1. In the bowl of a food processor, combine flour, salt, and sugar. Add butter, and process until the mixture resembles coarse meal, 8 to 10 seconds.
  2. With machine running, add ice water in a slow, steady stream through feed tube. Pulse until dough holds together without being wet or sticky; be careful not to process more than 30 seconds. To test, squeeze a small amount together: If it is crumbly, add more ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time.
  3. You can also mix by hand. To do so, mix together flour, salt, and sugar. Mix in butter using a pastry blender or two knives until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Drizzle in water, a tablespoon at a time and toss with a fork. When dough holds together when pressed, stop adding water. Press dough into ball.
  5. Divide dough into two equal balls. Flatten each ball into a disk, and wrap in plastic. Transfer to the refrigerator, and chill at least 1 hour. Dough may be stored, frozen, up to 1 month.
  6. Use as you would regular pie crust.
