This pie crust recipe is simple to make and results in a flaky and delicious base for your favorite pies.
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt.
Mixing the dry ingredients first ensures even distribution of the salt.
Add the oil to the flour mixture and stir until crumbly.
Use a fork or pastry cutter to evenly incorporate the oil.
Gradually add the cold water, mixing until the dough comes together.
Add water slowly to avoid making the dough too wet.
Divide the dough into two equal portions.
Dividing the dough now makes it easier to handle later.
Roll out each portion between two sheets of wax paper to your desired thickness.
Rolling between wax paper prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.
Place one rolled-out dough into a pie dish, trimming any excess.
Press gently to fit the dough into the dish without tearing.
Fill with your desired filling and cover with the second rolled-out dough, if applicable.
Seal the edges by pinching or crimping with a fork for a decorative touch.
Bake according to your pie recipe's instructions.
Keep an eye on the crust to prevent over-browning.
