This is the first pie crust I've made from scratch. It was so easy I think I will never buy a store bought one again. It was so easy to make. I only used half of the water. I was amazed with how easy it was to handle. I had no problem rolling it out and I even made the top into a lattice. The best part, it tasted soooooooo good. I'm normally not a fan of a pie crust and would often eat the filling and leave the crust behind. Not anymore.

Today I was making an apple pie. For some reason the crust I made did not turn out, so I was in a rush to make a quick crust. I decided on this one. I was expecting an okay crust but nothing special, this was perfect! I added some sugar in with the flour to make it sweet but that was all. I didn't have time to chill it. It baked up just fine without doing that step. Thanks for this recipe. I will be coming back to this one.

This was the easiest and best pie crust I have ever made! I added an extra tablespoon of water while in the processor and then wrapped it up and put it in the fridge. When I brought it out to roll it was definately too dry but I was still able to add a couple of extra tablespoons of ice cold water to make it just perfect. I thought I was going to overwork it but it was still really flaky and light.

I was able to make this work actually pretty well, for both my pumpkin and apple pie, this year at Thanksgiving! I would maybe use a spice for flavoring next time though.

I've always had bad luck with pie crust, I think you have to make them all the time to have "the touch". Anyway, this crust wasn't any harder to work with than the all Crisco one I grew up making, and the flavor added by the butter is really nice.

Great recipe. For pies and tarts I add a tablespoon of sugar to the pie crust recipe.

Depending on the weather and how dry the area you live in you may need to adjust either the amount of flour or water. I live in Arizona and it is very dry here so I use a little less flour and about 1/2 tablespoon more water.

I was extremely apprhensive about this recipe because it was my first time making a pie crust. I have yet to taste it, but it looks wonderful and is very flaky. I baked @ 450 covered with foil for 8 minutes, and an additional 5 without the foil. I'm afraid to try any other recipes because they may fail, but this is always a fall-back option.

Best crust I ever made. But, it was not enough for my largish quiche pan.

I was disappointed in the results with this recipe. I followed recipe exactly but the pastry would not stay together when rolling and never became the crisp tender crust I was expecting.
