Ingredients:

  • 1 1/3 cups crisco shortening
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2/3 cup additional flour
  • 3 cup capacity jar with tight fitting lid

Directions:

  1. Place the 1 1/3 Cup Crisco in large bowl.
  2. Add 1 1/2 teaspoon salt and whip together.
  3. Sift the 3 1/2 cups flour into the bowl with Crisco.
  4. With a fork or pastry blender break up flour & Crisco so that it resembles even looking lumps.
  5. Now put 1/2 Cup cold milk and 2/3 Cups sifted flour in the jar with the tight fitting lid.
  6. Shake it good so it looks like a smooth paste.
  7. Mix the paste mixture with the flour mixture.
  8. Work gently so crust will be tender. When dough is smooth, divide and roll out for the pie.
  9. Flour the counter first or you'll have a mess.
  10. Water may be used instead of milk...milk gives the crust a nicer color.
  11. Adding salt to the shortening tends for a flakier crust.
  12. For one pie shell - with a fork make holes on bottom & sides of unbaked crust, then place a smaller dish or cake pan in center and place in oven to bake.
  13. When crust is almost done, remove pan and bake a few minutes more.
  14. If using a fruit filling, place one crust in the bottom and then add your fruit.
  15. Cut out different shapes for the top or put the whole crust over the top making sure you have air vents to let the pie breathe .
  16. If you want a glaze, you can make a glaze with powdered sugar and water then drizzle over your fruit filled pie. Yum!
