PERFECT PIE CRUST STEPS
Making Pie Crust with Your Food Processor.
 |
 |
Pulse together two cups of ROBIN HOOD® All-Purpose flour with a teaspoon (2 mL) of salt. |
 |
 |
Scatter 3/4 of a stick of chilled Crisco® shortening. |
 |
 |
Pulse until it forms pea sized chunks. |
 |
 |
Drizzle in ice water and pulse until evenly moist, making sure the dough doesn't clump together. |
 |
 |
If crumbly, gradually add more water until dough is moist enough to form a ball. |
 |
 |
For a double crust, divide into two disks, one slightly larger than the other. |
 |
 |
Lightly flour and roll out the pie crust. |
 |
 |
Transfer the crust to the pie plate. |
 |
 |
Add fresh apple filling, lay the smaller crust on top and flute the edges. Apply egg wash and vent before baking. |
